I aquiredthis old stool/chair that is marked
Gits Bros Mfg Co.
1846 So. Kilbourn Ave
Chicago, ILL 20791
I learned that the company still exists but is no longer at this address. I noticed the 3 letter state abbreviation and the zip code is not a Chicago zip code, but other than that I know nothing. Any advice?

That probably isn't a zip code. It might be a model number or something. It looks like 209 11 to me, with a space in between.
Two-letter abbreviations for the state names and zip codes have only been in use since 1963. Before that, the post office preferred that the state name be spelled out, but they accepted common abbreviations without having any standard ones.
