RETRO GUNLOCKE EASY CHAIR IN FREAK HANSEN

The Gunlocke Furniture Company was started in Wayland, N.Y. in 1902.  It originally specialized in high quality seating for homes, libraries and lounges.  They survived the depression in part due to President Franklin D. Roosevelt's endorsement by choosing Gunlocke Furniture for the White House.  Subsequent Presidents have chosen Gunlocke for custom pieces.  Notably, John F. Kennedy made some of the most significant decisions of the twentieth century, including Cuban Missile Crisis decisions, from his Gunlocke chair in the oval office.  They are still producing fine quality furniture today and are still producing it in New York State.
