Child Chairs
The four chairs have interesting histories.
The green straight chair was bought by her
parents for my wife, Beatrice Ferslev, when
she was four years old (in 1919). It was
used specifically for her to sit on in the
one-seated family automobile while her
older sister sat between the parents and
the younger sister sat on mother's lap.
The other three chairs were given to me
after my *cousin's children outgrew
them (about 1915). The training chair was
a brown color – stain and varnish
–; we never had the tray. The
"kitchen" chair was red enamel.
I remember the rocker as yellow –
probably a stained or natural finish.
When Uncle Abe Frei brought the training
chair from Spokane, Washington, out to the
ranch on Indian Prairie, he was embarassed;
so he put it in a burlap bag. I named the
chairs for ranch horses – Major
(training chair), Queen (kitchen),
and Flo (rocker) and drove them with
string lines. The chair backs and rear legs
still show the wear from being dragged
across the floor. I still refer to them
by name.
