@therye  Yes, that's where my research ended as well.  Maybe I should pay for a newspapers.com subscription; it looks like the old ads and articles have some great info and photos.  I did come across this Gordon's ad for my table but it doesn't mention a designer.  It does, interestingly, describe the styling as "Swedish", so maybe a nod to Hinn's work for Urban?

Yes the mention of Swedish styling is intriguing and there is also a confirmed Hinn dresser that has little flair outs on the doors very similar to the how the sides of this table flare out.  Honestly documentation on Gordon's is thin on the ground.  I think the best luck I have had is going through House and Garden from the 50's and 60's quite a few ads for gordon's in those IRCC.  Hardly any easily found refrences to Gordon's in newspapers.com, however this a decent amount for William Hinn.  Hinn also did items on the Trend 75 line for selig along with Vladimir Kagan and Finn Anderson.
