<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 108409, member: 44&quot;]Mornin&#039; Gregg! I forgot about the Tuesday patent thing. Soooooo, the first link to the Arizona Historical Society with a date of Sep 19, 1924 is wrong, probably a typo. The next link that says Sep. 16, 1924 is probably right for that was a Tuesday,</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyhow, the OP&#039;s chair is not like any of those with a patent date of 1924. The style of the Op&#039;s looks newer. It looks more like what others have said, the 1950s with possibly the late 1930s to the 1940s as the earliest. I have seen a couple of listings of chairs with backs like the OP&#039;s but different seats - none with the same wood insert seat, and none of them said there was an actual patent date on them. I suspect they are saying 1920s only because what they have seen about the other style Viking fold chair. It is highly unlikely that Maple City would have patented 2 different back style folding chair on the same date or even in the same timeframe. Do note the ones with the same backs that I found, all had the same style seat as those with the patent date - none with a plank of wood.</p><p>Note the seat differences from the Op&#039;s:</p><p><a href="http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/set-antique-maple-city-stamping-co-470446087" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/set-antique-maple-city-stamping-co-470446087" rel="nofollow">http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/set-antique-maple-city-stamping-co-470446087</a></p><p><a href="https://www.pinterest.com/pin/244249979765683287/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.pinterest.com/pin/244249979765683287/" rel="nofollow">https://www.pinterest.com/pin/244249979765683287/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
