The set includes 2 night stands, a dresser, and a tall dresser-like unit that stands taller than a traditional dresser. Looks like cherry wood on the top with painted white base/drawers. Says "American of Martinsville" on the inside of the drawers.

One way to determine a value is to see what others are attempting to get for theirs.
Check here for starters.

Vintage bedroom ideas?

I'm redoing my room, and would like a vintage/victorian type feel to it.
What color comforter and walls should I paintmy room if I plan on getting this bedroom set?

Answer
The furniture does look like cottage furniture which you can still give it a Cottage Victorian look. You could paint your walls most any pastel shade. A light green would be nice and also calming for a bedroom. Add white lace curtains for that Victorian look or semi-sheers if you want it to look more like the cottage look. You could also mix the the lace with the sheers. I would use a floral comforter, preferably one with big roses. Use lots of roses in your room in vases and pictures. Choose lamps with fringe or beads on the shades. An over stuffed chair or settee in the room would look nice also if you have the room. Lots of pillows, a silver tea set on a bed tray, old books, gloves, hats, pearls, cameos, a collection of shells, will all look Vintage/Victorian, along with some black and white photos to put in older frames. Look in antique shops for some of your treasures.
Good luck and happy hunting. :)
