x-base director's chair with black leather?

If so, would Virtue Bros. of California have produced it?

I found a set of 4 today, and they are very heavy, great quality of seat and back, etc...

I have found that there were many Southern California companies who produced his designs. But nothing yet that specifically links him to Virtue Bros.

I would really appreciate it if anyone has any info to contribute.

Thank you!

Baughman
would not be associated with the tacky metalwork seen here, I think -- those distorted bends are worthy of Walmart-grade stuff, aren't they ?
