It is exactly what I said it was.
Clipping taken from Better Design Magazine April 1952 page 30

Text Reads:
Five-piece wrought iron dinette set (right) was staff designed for Frank & Son (#8000)
Very clearly not designed by George Nelson nor manufactured by Arbuck irregardless of what others might wish to believe.

In poor taste
Jesgord,
Foxxy is making a joke (in exceptionally poor taste considering the history here) at my expense and possibly at the expense of the historical record.
I?ll give him or her a few days to publish a retraction before I permanently remove myself from all interaction on this site.

don't even think about it.
straylight,
You are quite an asset to this forum. foxxxy's response was foolish. Do I need to return to posting snappies?
Respectfully,
Your Aunt Mark

Straylight, please don't give in to people who troll on forums. You're research is very important. We need you here.

Oh straylight
Please dont leave. My life will be meaningless without you......Stop being so dramatic, you sound like Mark 🙂
Foxxy, it would be nice if you could post the rest of the page as Straylight likely spent a lot of time researching this.

Fuxxxxy
is someone that, on one hand, derides people for being old.
Then... when it suits, calls on 'years of personal experience'
best ignored, in my opinion 🙂

robert1960,The scan is...
robert1960,
The scan is a joke (an obvious one) and a statement on straylights questionable researching methods.
I have never derided anyone for being old.
I called you a fat bald bastard and I probably cracked a joke about your poorly written book that you were lucky to get published, but I never called you old.

Thank You
for taking the time to read my (first) book!
Straylight- I'm sure I speak for most people here - your research, and the subsequent sharing of it, is very welcome and highly educational.

I'd like to think that Foxxy would't behave like this in face to face everyday life.
Yet again the anonymity of the computer keyboard brings out the worst in people.
