Riverside SP 2-6211 1 :-div.:.:.;o?rv Buried Treasure by $Hi Value of Furniture Differs from Looks Just because of a piece of furniture may look awkward, cumbersome and otherwise in poor taste, one shouldn't as sume that it is necessarily without value. It may have a very considerable value. A case in point is that of a friend who recently exclaim ed indignantly over the price tag on a chair displayed in an interior decorator's shop. It was $200, and what irri tated her was that the iden tical chair had been priced at only $30 a few weeks before. She remembered it well be cause it was such a monstrosi ty. Her labeling it that was not unjustifiable. It was a square chair with the back along two sides at right angles to each other. Three of the legs were perfectly plain, but the fourth, which happened to be directly opposite the right angle forming the center of the back, was a very ornate job in marked contrast to the others. Where it joined the seat of the chair it swelled outward two or three inches, forming what is known as a knee. The knee was carved in acanthus leaves. The foot of the leg was carved also, in the claw and ball design. Otherwise, the entire piece was plain. The seat consisted of a piece of worn but still tough pig's hide held down by brass tacks. I recognized the type at once as what is known as a corner chair, an article of furniture that was popular in the 1700's and well into the 1800's. But that didn't explain the reason for the change in price, as far as my friend was concerned. Only the owner of the establishment could do that. His explanation was simple. His associates, who had priced it originally, had not recog nized the piece for what it was, probably a product of the late 1700's. He had been away on a business trip and fortunately had returned just in time to price it properly before someone bought it.

However, even on that basis even though the quantity of the investment is still worth a given stamp will run into while, wholly aside from the the hundreds of millions and nonmonetary satisfactions the even billions. collector gets.
