Information About Dixie Furniture?

An antique dresser stored upside down.I would like to know estimated year this was made. I think I see a date but not sure if that's the date. Screws are flat so I know it's antique. What year did they stop doing that?

Hope the pics help. It's on its top because a leg came off. It's definitely a project. Thank you for any info available.

Can you show the Dixie mark? I want to make sure we are talking about the maker and not the Dixie stores.

When I see the mark, I may have a better idea what you have.

The Dixie Furniture Company opened in 1901 in Lexington, North Carolina. Henry Link and others opened the company, which eventually became Lexington Furniture Brands.

Dixie Furniture Company (the manufacturers of furniture from Lexington, NC) is no longer in business. The company had a history of manufacturing furniture under the Dixie name from 1901 until about 1986-1987. After that time, Lexington Furniture subsumed the Dixie Brand. However, there is a retail store in Charleston, South Carolina that goes by the same name.
From 1901 until 1986-87, Dixie produced mid-market furniture in America. Indeed, most of their manufacturing plants were located in Lexington, North Carolina.
Dixie produced several lines of furniture. However, there were four styles by Dixie that are most commonly found today:
Dixie French Provincial Furniture
Traditional Dixie Federal Style Furniture
Bamboo Dixie Tahiti Furniture
Dixie Mid Century Modern Furniture.

You have Mid Century Highboy Tall Dresser by Dixie Furniture with 4 drawers.

Mid Century Modern styles that featured clean lines, minimalist profiles and peg legs. Additionally, MCM Dixie dressers may not have any hardware, or it may have very geometric bold handles.

I found a similar dresser, but it has drawer handles marykaysfurniture.com/.../ Period: 1960-1969

The numbers you see are not the date, but the model number. Please write what number your model has.
