ca. 1925. According to the 1925 City Directory, Standard Office Equipment was located at 109 So. 10th. The company was a stationer and office outfitter. Apparently they guaranteed to furnish your office no matter what the employee's sizes. They demonstrate this by photographing the circus "Fat Lady" in a chair built by Sikes. A regular office chair is posed nearby for comparison. (WSHS)
