Please take your SEAT
Pic your SEATing...
Did you go to Clearfield High?
These seats were in the auditorium from the beginning.
Not sure when they were removed.
Speaking of removed...they were from back in the day when you could chew bubblegum and stick it under the seats...uh huh...Carl removed loads of old hardened bubblegum, layers of dust and grime, shined them up with beeswax and orange oil and now they look like THIS! ( I always wish I had taken before photo's, but he's just so quick to fix things up).
The first two photo's are the same seats of 5 in a row, one on the end written in white original paint says "usher". The next two photo's are another grouping of 4 seats. NOW...these seats come apart, I think in groups of two or they ALL connect into one large row.
The last two photo's are the backs, nice metal hardware, seats fold up and they are sturdy. No breakage, nice patina and a little chippy on a few.
We have another grouping of 5 which have not been refinished up quite yet.
I just really want to take them to the vintage whites event, but if someone just had to have a grouping you can contact us @ justabedofroses@hotmail.com
we are working a pricing...
for now the group of 4 are 250.00 and the group of 5 are 300.00
What a treasure...we have been going to buy these from a guy for 2 years and finally did it (as you see we are enjoying our retirement time, if you like all work and no play!)
Will be sharing an antique dental cabinet next up for sale, all original, it's just beyond charming. So please check back.
(I'll also get some measurements on these chairs).
The shop here at home is NOT opened this weekend.
