<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Phil F., post: 1297330, member: 5301&quot;]I have a small Larkin piece too. A sideboard. When I did the research I learned of the premium gifting. Soap for furniture. My piece is small, not like the larger elaborate pieces, but to me just as significant. It was purchased by a lady in NY State. The labeling is still on the back of the piece.I also followed this story as I am a Frank Lloyd Wright follower and he designed the Larkin Building, which sadly is gone. They were one of the first mail order companies going back to the 1800&#039;s. I don&#039;t think you would have gotten a furniture piece for just $10 worth of soap. To me it was more like an early day Sears catalog store. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larkin_Company" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larkin_Company" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larkin_Company</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
