I bought the inventor of the lint roller's leather office furniture - Stow Davis from 1966 !
Apparently, he donated the furniture to a church sale. The man we bought it from bought it there, and kept it for quite a while in storage. The corporation was Helmac and the inventors name was Nicholas Mckay .
The furniture itself is labeled with Helmac corporation tags...and it was made by Stow Davis in 1966. The pictures aren't especially good...they were taken in my storage area and the light was off. They are a mustard yellow, like the club chairs and sofa at the link to 1st dibs, not a green like it appears (although, they did make this particular set in green leather). They are in good condition, in need a cleaning etc...but in good shape since they are 48 years old!

These are going to be for personal use I think. I have plans on making a VERY retro basement area for the family..these might just do the trick.
oh my god I am so jealous! I love them...
ReplyDeletethanks. They were a great deal, and when I get this room done they will look fantastic I hope. They are super strong (being contract furniture) and the leather is wonderful..... this room is going to be my winter project....
