<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 158124, member: 37"]This is an oak patent recliner circa 1900. Similar to a Morris chair but used a patented mechanism. Value is difficult. Not many want these today and location matters. I could pick up similar here in the Midwest for next to nothing needing upholstery. Since yours has that nice leather, it adds value. I could see this priced a few hundred or more in a shop that caters to mountain resort clientele for their cottages. In my Midwest semi-rural farmland location, this would have to be under $150.00 to even get a sniff. I am sure it would sit awhile. Large city locations might do a bit better.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
