History
My husband bought this hall tree off craigslist because he has always wanted one. I was taking pictures of it to sell it when I found the stamp on the inside of the door and decided to research it a little more to see if we should keep it.

Re: Lebus Hall Tree
It's late Art Deco and English, here's a link to the company history of Lebus:

Lots of furniture of this type has been imported since the late 1980's, values are currently in a slump for it, comparable pieces often sell for less than $300.00 at auction.

Re: Lebus Hall Tree
Hi does anyone know anything about 'Lebus Link Furniture' from around 1950? Is this the same as the earlier Lebus make? I have a pair of armchairs from the early 1950s with a 'lebus link furniture' plaque.
Any info much appreciated!
Re: Lebus Hall Tree
I have just bought one of these and if you take the mirror off, I found mine was stamped with November 1955. Mine is identical to your picture so I guess it is from the same time frame.
