I remember how delighted Dad was when he brought home an antique, 1930's school desk chair that he used as a kid when in school. He loved things that reminded him of his childhood. Maybe because he moved so much as a kid that his memory for things was so strong.
But as much as he loved this treasure, my mom was beside herself. Why would he want old things? What's he going to do with them? Where are we going to store it? It didn't last long. These desks, originals like the one in the picture, go for $325 today.
