If you search a bit, I think you will find some of these that are folding.
First might be carrying a baby. Second has a seal skin on head.
Agree ... thousands of these roses paintings out there.
Circa 1870 Renaissance Revival pier mirror. This probably had a more substantial base at one time.
I think all that lacing on the edges would have to be un-done to be able to put a new zipper in. The old zipper would also have to be ripped out....
A few things to show. All are thrift store finds. Some of the pics are not the best, as taken by the store as I took them in. This 50s-60s...
I would not call this Eastlake. Victorian for sure with some elements of Renaissance Revival period. Likely a mail-order or sales premium piece,...
I'm afraid this is a factory painting. The number on the back made me suspicious. Seeing the second one with the designation on the back sealed...
Probably 1930s. Maybe off a highboy. Like this..... [IMG]
Right ... does seem to be Stanley, though some are getting attributions wrong on these and the various clones.
Have seen your chair before but can't quite place it. It is similar to one designed by Hans Wegner but not exact. Still looking .......

This fits better with your story of him not making it there to the hotel than the reality of his death. He died while at the New Jersey seaside....
I found this particularly interesting ..... "There are people who are not interested in a work until it hits $1 million.” Ridiculous as it...
A look in to the world of hyping art ..... http://nypost.com/2016/05/07/how-art-dealers-dupe-rich-people-into-paying-much-more/
Have you had this authenticated? Appears to be at least for Garfield or a memorial to him. Garfield did travel to the seaside where he died 13...
That is what I was seeing as well but wanted to make sure. The imagery is fairly recognizable as such but not overly overt. I didn't really get...
New pics confirm the 20s date. Pics are too poor to identify wood still. The close-up of the chair looks more like mahogany than walnut since it...
Thanks! Here is the second pair. They seem to have quite a bit of loss of finish to both bases. Not sure if it is plating or just paint. The...
Thanks ... I have been looking around and also coming up blank. A look on ebay didn't bring up anything exactly like these either but there are...
