<p>[QUOTE="Bill Martin Bl, post: 9503097, member: 82011"]I am really glad for all the responses that I received about the Kennedy Era White House chair. Even though I am sure it is an actual White House Chair bought directly from the Tell City, Indiana Furniture Company. We lived in Tell City in 1962 and were there until the summer of 1966. I remember when they brought in a TV set to our 6th grade classroom so we could watch the live broadcast of the Kennedy aspiration. My dad was very proud and excited that he was able to purchase the chair and it remained in the living room of all the houses we lived in. Since I am unable to find any more information about the authenticity of this chair, I don't feel comfortable about displaying the chair in our county museum but I do have myself a very good mystery. I personally do not doubt that this chair is of a design that either was for the White House and not used or was used in a very small quantity and therefore is hard to verify. </p><p>Thanks again!</p><p>Bill[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
