Title: Sweet Comings Dresser
Post by: cee_jay on August 15, 2010, 07:31:10 PM

Hi All,
I found this dresser and LOVED it.. but I cant find any info on it. I can only find that company started in 1875 and went out of business in 1987 and people would wait 1-2 years for a bedroom set. but when I look up sweet comings I get nothing. please help

No chance you're actually in Vermont is there?  If you are, your local library or archives could offer a wealth of info that's not available online.

Well don't give up, somewhere out there there ARE answers. Just need to find the right 'words' to make it appear on the screen...or the right contact to fill in the gaps.  ;)
