In 1881 We
Sold Morris
Chairs
Thoy were among the first articles of
furniture wo did sell, too.
And wo had to make them ourselves,
because some of the old-tlmo kind of fur
niture dealers were so enraged at the
Grand Depot adding furniture to its stocks
that they threatened to boycott the manu
facturer who was to make them for us.
We Sell About 3000
Different Patterns in
Chairs Now
but not more than two or three Morris
chairs in the whole 3000 different kinds!
The fashion of the straight-lined re-cllning-back
lounging chair, named after
William Morris and variously upholstered
with velvet or leather cushions, has almost
passed away.
People prefer the big wing-back fire
side chair, the cozy club lounging chair,
the softly cushioned easy chair that invites
with every inch of its upholstered surface.
Or the bolt upright Windsor chair. They
are all less cumbersome and as a rule they
furnish a room more satisfactorily than
the old-time Morris chair.
We wish you would come and look
around at all this enormous family of fine,
comfortable easy chairs, little and big, that
have sprung from those first few Morris
chairs made in our own factory forty years
ago.
The determination to give people com
fort then has blossomed out into this
entire great P'urniture Store now.
