More stuff about the furniture

The bed we are painting for Emma came from my grandfather's house. My aunt Emma gave it to me when I moved into my own place after college. I don't know where it came from, I should probably ask my mother. When Chucky took it apart to paint it, I saw this:



We are not painting this part, since these are the slats that go under the mattress. Miller & Rhoads. Does anyone else remember it? I am showing my age by remembering that department store and the Santa we used to visit there every year. It was a neat surprise to see that stamped on the bed. And maybe years from now it will be a neat surprise to someone else. Or maybe it will mean nothing to them at all!
