I have a couple of dressers that date back probably to the 1930s or 1940s. There is a stamp on them that says, "MADE IN VERMONT" and under that, "BEECHER FALLS" all within what looks to be a maple leaf. Any information on what type of wood this would be, and how to care for it, would be greatly appreciated.

Let's re-examine the clues. Vermont.....Maple Syrup
Maple Leaf on furniture
Gee....maybe Maple?
Look underneath, is the wood blond in color, where it isn't stained? Does the wood have a "burly" appearance? If so Maple.
