My kitchen table from parents home is a DTW-30. found the letters from HM about delivery of replacement legs and hardware. Letter is dated December 1956. They had problems with legs from the beginning, wobbles. My parents moved into house in late 1954.

sorry
No i am sorry we don't have the first set of legs. I have a letter from 1962 that HM also had to change the hardware to work with the table. My brother is looking for buyers for the furniture. The chairs are not for sale, but the table is. After 60 years of use, one leg wobbles alot. In fact that is how I felt the earthquake on Long Island. The table kept shaking and I wasn't leaning on it.
memorable moment with MCM

no markings
There isn't a HM mark on the chairs or table. I wonder why they aren't marked but are HM because of the correspondence on the HM legs and hardware for securing them to the top.
