Mersman tables were manufactured in the middle of the 20th century. This table is in the $200-$250 range, based on what I have seen.
Nice piece! From my study of the brand, I am thinking this is a 1950s piece...but I am not an expert...just love the brand and the lines!
Why I think it is 50s is the claw feet, spools underneath, and the splay of the legs. I also believe the green and yellow tag is from their 50s incarnation. Mersman changed their name, numbering, and markings so many times in its storied history it is amazing!
With the Mersman pieces selling them (value) is all about condition, supply and demand. There are a lot of these pieces out in the market so if there is big demand, the price goes up. Small demand, the price drops.
On eBay SIMILAR pieces sell between $50 and $400. That is a huge range. The only way to know the EXACT value of your piece is to find the EXACT one sold online recently...and I looked and there are none on any of the sites I frequent. Similar, but not exact.
To know the value of your piece, exact is critical.
Selling furniture is always a challenge and I recommend finding a good vintage furniture store who can sell it for you on consignment or perhaps pay up front and then sell...if you are trying to sell it.
If you don't have the patience to research and find an exact piece sold, and you are determined to sell it on your own, your particular market will dictate the selling price. Start high and tell people you will take the best offer.
Post back what you learn/decide! It is a lovely piece!!
