Found this chair in rough condition on its way to the trash basically. Picked it up for $5. I knew it was reminiscent of the early wooden legged Saarinen arm chairs but have not sen one like this. No tag on bottom, just 4 staples and discoloration where it used to be. Any information on this wounded bird?

It does look like the Haerdtl chairs for Thonet, but
the legs are quite different. http://visavu.nl/?projects=504

Indeed...
It does look similar. Legs quite different as you said. Have spent a little time looking for a Thonet chair such as this one. Thanks for the input!
