[QUOTE="bluumz, post: 4386075, member: 649"]Today’s acquisition from my local FB marketplace for only $10. :shame: A bit worse for the wear but very sturdy and looks all original. Measures 19.5 inches tall, 19.5 inches wide, and 15.5 inches deep. It’s apparently a good example of how you cannot date furniture by the furniture paper tag. The date on this paper tag is 1929 however the Hitchcock Chair Company was not reincarnated until 1946 and didn’t start production until 1948. Editing to add/question: Info I'm finding state the "new" Hitchcock Chair Company didn't start stamping the Hitchcock name on items until 1952, and then "always" used backward N's and a copyright symbol in order to not be confused with the original Hitchcock production. No backward N's on mine, and no copyright symbol. ???
