My feeble attempt
My feeble (first?) attempt at an ID: the desks on pages 54-57 may have been designed by Gunnar Nielsen Tibergaard.
All four desks are very comparable though not identical to Tibergaard designs that I know of. I've linked to photos of 3 of them below. It seems that Tibergaard made quite a number of desk designs including slight variations of the same design. The dimensions listed for the advertisement in the first attached photo and the desk on page 57 are very close (53 x 27.5 vs 55 x 28.5).
Anyway, I thought I'd throw the suggestion out there. Thanks for posting the catalogue. Very interesting!

The desks on pages 56 and 57 are often sold as Kai Kristiansen.

Demp and H.moon
Thanks for helping me identify those desks. I think the desk on page 57 is Kai Kristiansen for Feldballes Møbelfabrik. Which reasonably corresponds with the FB assigned to it in the catalog.
H.moon: the desk on page 56 you say is a Kai Kristiansen design too, any idea who the manufacturer is? (Initials would be "MV")

A marked Aasbjerg!
Just found the first marked piece. I am very surprised to have found a marked piece.
And, of course, he would not mark his work with his name or initials, like most everybody else; no, he would have to use his ineffable trademark.
Anyway: Excellent Furniture Company #33, nesting tables, solid teak.
