American Wooden Chairs: 1895-1908 (A Schiffer Book for Collectors)
Tina Skinner
An excellent guide for researching and pricing popular chairs from the past, for makers and collectors. Includes hundreds of detailed illustrations of American wooden chairs ranging from golden oak, walnut and elm, to the Viennese-style bentwood. At the turn of the 20th century, these chairs were considered among the best available. This text is a reprint of the 1908 catalog of the Phoenix Chair Company, of Sheboygan, Wisconsin. Now, however, it has current values for these antiques. An authoritative guide to the chairs produced by Phoenix, which helped set the styles that furnished a nation.
