[QUOTE="Ghopper1924, post: 3942184, member: 5170"]Yo Kansas! Your remarks are on target. It's a late Victorian adjustable lounge chair. Would date it to the last decades of the 19th century.

Morris chairs used a similar mechanism to raise and lower the backs, so I can see why that would come to mind. They were later, though.[/QUOTE]
