These Herman Miller armchairs are in fantastic condition. Does anybody recognise the stamps underneath the chairs. October 1963.  Any particular significance to them?

@maxbernat. The logos/stamps (embossed or otherwise) have been discussed many times on the Forum over the years 

I recall a member , who used to post here,  aptly named  "Eameshead" and by entering their user name into the search function, managed to narrow down the results !

I'm sure someone else here can help with the ink stamps.

From a post in 2013.

"Circle "S" w "Herman Miller" embossed = later Summit* c. 1960s to at least mid 1970s (many of these also have paper label and HM medallion)"

Link to thread. post 2, page 1:-

* Summit was one of the companies to whom HM outsourced the manufacturing of these chairs as far as I gather/remember. 🤔
