I think this might be a Paul McCobb Planar group side chair- no marks that I could find, other than some numbers in grease pencil on the bottom. Quite comfy and $4.99 at the Goodwill

I think this might be a wine chiller- I am not sure. I loved the teak handles. It is silver or silver plate-anyone have any idea...the next picture is of the mark on the bottom. $2.99 at the Kenneth Young thrift.

This week has been good for trash picking- a lot of houses got water in their basements 2 weeks ago with the flooding and they are cleaning out.

This pair of chairs are fiberglass with vinyl cushons. the chrome legs could use a little steel wool, but overall pretty good shape. (one has a chipped corner) They are marked on the bottom "Krueger Metal Products, Greenbay Wis" and then have the numbers 92666 and 92366A....I just like them.
