FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT Chairs (2) From Kalita Humphreys Theater In Dallas, 1959. I bought these directly from the theater in the 1990s when my wife and I lived in Dallas. I never attempted to restore them but they are in great shape and only need to have the base stand bare metal sanded / cleaned, primed and painted. I have stored them in a temperature controlled environment since acquiring them. What makes one of these two chairs very unique is that one of them has a special brass or copper plate on the left arm rest which has the name Mr. Rodman engraved on it as well as Wrights drawling of the theater. Clearly, this was a special seat for a theater donor or sponsor and the plaques drawling – in addition to its colors and design – directly ties it to Wright design. Please see the photos for condition. Please see my other chairs and other interesting bits!
