This style of Mersman is from the 70's era, valued up to $50 in it's present state. There are a few online starting at $50 for this style- www.ebay.com/.../114507416834 - And another for a lot more on consignment, that is walnut and very good condition for $600 - www.chairish.com/.../1970s-mersman-walnut-round-modern....

I really like this table but have found nothing like it online.
If you post a picture of the underside that shows the label someone can tell you a little about dates but there are no records showing any relationship to the numbers and years made.

Most sellers just describe their pieces as 'mid century' and that is generally correct.

If your table can be cleaned up in the original finish I would suggest that you clean it up as much as possible, list it for sale on several sites like Craigslist, Facebook Market, OfferUp, LetGo, and any other site that you're familiar with (not eBay or Etsy unless you already post there). Start your price higher - maybe $250-$300 - add best offer considered and local pick up only (unless you wish to deal with shipping an item like this).
Let it sit for several weeks and if no offers, lower the price and wait again.
You will need excellent pictures of your table - every angle and I'm hoping it would sell. Sales are unpredictable but rarely fast/quick so be a little patient if possible.

If this is not successful then continue with your first thoughts.
Good luck.

Thank you. Here are a couple more things I have done. I am sort of new at this so I am learning as I go.

You may be new at this type but clearly have a gift for it.
I am constantly amazed at what some of this type of furniture constantly sells for on Etsy.

I think a lot of people are like me and if it requires more than a small brush or spray can then I'll pass it by.
When people have your type of talent and do not mind doing the work it involves they deserve to be rewarded for their work.
Whatever is happening to your nice pieces, I hope it gives you a lot of 'happy' feelings and maybe some nice 'extra' money.

These tables are from the mid 20th century. They are worth $25-$45, depending on condition.

What does the Mersman label look like?

It has a 60s-80s vibe too it, but seeing the label would help age it (sadly their numbers are not good to help date pieces).

I don't think I have ever seen a tavern style table that Mersman made--so this is cool!

Where are you located?

Maybe with more info, I can help you date and value it.

Thanks for sharing!

I am in Ashtabula Ohio.
Each level of the table has a Formica like surface.
