Scope and content
Week three of upholstering your chair included covering the springs with burlap, placing a layer of horsehair over burlap, then covering the horsehair with cotton upholstery padding. The final step would be to cover the chair with your chosen fabric; Selden's furniture store and specialists were assisting the Tacoma Times with this project. View of chair being upholstered at Selden's Incorporated's facilities; this was part of a four week "Upholstering Made Easy" feature in the Sunday Tacoma Times (T. Times, 1/9/49, p. 4).
