are there any communities for identifying old stuff?

I am restoring an old chest and found an undecipherable label under the cover of the lid. Are there any communities for identifying old stuff like this?

What have is “*****halle & co.” and I would assume that it is American.

Judging by the materials I recon that this is from the period between 1900–1940s.

Secondary question: There’s another label underneath it, but I’m afraid of tearing them apart. Is there any way to separate the labels? Like putting them in water or something?

Removing per rule #3 - please check the sidebar for suggestions on how to find communities. Best of luck with the chest!
