The last thing you acquired, #18  

Nice rugs
For $3 they were a steal. I also liked the papercord bench in the third pic. Who made that?

great
to see the original ad!

Handsome chair. I would replace the Plycraft if it is just as comfortable.

I am thinking the
same thing on the chair, but the wife has reservations.
As for who made it, I THINK it might be by Heritage, which I THINK was associated w/ Drexel? But that is only a guess.

Valentines is coming
For her from me the The Curse of Lono signed limited edition for Taschen.
For me from her the Vanessa del Rio - Fifty Years of Slightly Slutty Behavior signed limited edition for Taschen.
Only ten days until we get to open the gifts.

Nice!...guy
Do you know if the Vanessa Del Rio comes with any video? (VHS or Betamax) Wooaah here she comes, watch out boys she'll chew you up!

DVD
Emcee M,
Yes the limited edition as well as the trade hardcover edition ($59.99) have an original 140 minute DVD documentary included.

It's here...
Stopped in at my client's store the other day to drop off some books right as my order from December's Herman Miller sale was being delivered. Amazingly I was able to fit it all in my car with a few inches to spare. When I got home I saw that the bases I ordered for my vintage shell chairs had been delivered as well. The desk is just the right size (I was afraid it would be too small) - my only issue is that I seem to remember seeing them with the HM/George Nelson signature badge in the past and mine has none. The table is great and larger than I'd imagined as well. I was worried I made a mistake getting the laminate top instead of full walnut, but the laminate is matte, quality, and matches the desk. Since it's going to be used as a work table and possibly a kitchen table at some point, I'd probably kill myself if I had gotten wood and damaged it. I'm still not sure if I'm in love with the Aluminum Group chair. I went with the Maharam Messenger fabric in Satsuma but I kind of wish I had gone with a multicolor Girard fabric (I was already over-budget). I also picked up a Nelson Platform Bench, sixty-inches with the reintroduced metal legs. Once I get everything arranged I'll take proper photos of everything. I'm running out of space yet I've got an eye on a set of two LCWs...

a 60's abstract
there are so many awesome things on these threads!

as promised
a few pieces of arty stuff. An abstract by (Robert Wells, 1964) that I am still trying to decide if I like (throw it on a wall and stare at it, always works) and a really nice wood sculpture, sort of Brancusi-ish signed E (or C) Garrett. Nicely done i think.

I bought this painting a few ...
I bought this painting a few weeks ago. By Saelee Oh. Seems to be an original painting. I really like it. What do you guys think?
