The Selig Danish Collection catalogs include some other stuff, like Nanna Ditzel chairs, that one does not normally associate with Selig. When I got my first Selig catalog, I was surprised to see the Hovmand Olsen chairs in the catalog.
Most Selig Danish catalogs have the same cover -- a big Danish flag emblem. But while the catalogs look the same, the contents can vary quite a bit from one to another. So, it could be that one of them has the chairs of the original poster. I have not seen it thus far though.
The Elizabeth Chair is probably Kofod-Larsen's most famous and coveted chair design, and I believe this was also true even during his career (Queen Elizabeth II bought two of them, hence the name). The auction prices for them are similar to what is paid for Finn Juhl NV45's and Chieftain chairs. I would be surprised, given the very close working relationship that Mendell Selig had with Kofod-Larsen (even hiring him to do designs after Mendell Selig started a different company later on) that he would personally tinker with Kofod Larsen's most famous design and do a Selig version of it without Kofod-Larsen's involvement.
I have never seen the chairs in the original post before, but if they do have Selig medallions on them, I think it is most likely that Kofod-Larsen did them for Selig, basing the frames partly on the Elizabeth chair design.
P.S. -- Odd you should mention the extent of my knowledge, Leif, as I had always assumed you knew far more than I did about most stuff, as you seem more on the ball than I am in most situations.
Hello, is it possible to have a chat with you about Mendell Selig and Ib Kofod-Larsen's relationship?
