Krueger shell armchair

just a shell chair that came out in the 60s to compete with the Herman miller shells, no big deal, cheap to begin with, for 2 bucks you can set on it and enjoy it, Not gonna be in MOMA any time soon,

Krueger
Krueger started out in the 40s making your standard metal folding chair. In the 50s they started making fiberglass pieces to compete and copy Herman Miller. They continued on to the present day, unfortunately descending into the bland world of corporate and contract furniture.
$2 ain't bad for fun chairs.
Incidentally- if you ever find yourself at the China Moon Buffet/Greyhound Bus station in White River Junction, VT, be sure to peek in - a million multicolored Krueger shells next to a giant window that peeks from the bus station into the Chinese windows.

value
i've had a number of kreuger chairs and regularly get $100 apiece, so for $2 buy as many as you can!

we own several shopping centers and in one of them is a laudry mat, I was over there today and i saw some old kruger, with cracks in them and the stands were real narrow and ugly,

.
laundromats seem to have those all over the U.S.A.

Are mine worth anything?
Hi,
You seem to know a bit about these chairs, I haven't been able to find out much so far. I have 2 vintage Kreuger vinyl/fiberglass chairs (potato chip style, no arm rests)probably from the 1960-70s that my mother gave me. Do you think they are worth anything? Stamped"Kreuger Metal Works", some rust but the shells are in great shape. I may sell them if I can get a decent price.
Thanks,
Kate

not much
Eames fiberglass side chairs run between 20$ and 200$ depending on age, condition, color, etc. Kruegers...guessing you could get between $20 and $50 apiece if you have the right buyer.

Maybe Craig's list...
Thanks for the info, not valuable enough to keep to pass on to my kids but may fill up my gas tank!
