[QUOTE="judy, post: 3402425, member: 965"]I think Komo's post was tongue in cheek? These are my thoughts. (I have one like it). I think they date to the 1920's, Windsor style. My reason for having this particular chair was the size....just right in size to hold a doll, & with some age. The one I have would probably hold a toddler 2/3 years of age. Yours could be larger for an older child......doesn't really matter in my opinion. Not worth much in dollars.....tops $25 in my neck of the woods, and it wouldn't go flying out the door, and probably then only after accepting an offer. I purchased the chair when I was collecting dolls........probably back 20 years or more. Probably at a yard sale, and probably for a mere $2.00. Mine is NOT in good condition......the rungs are always falling out...fine for a doll but not a child. Mass produced and not expensive furniture to start. Reading the condition of your chair again, my $25 is generous, but if you are wanting to sell it, I would advertize it as being perfect for an antique doll.............. Wait for other opinions though.[/QUOTE]
