Senate Theater.

Thanks for the image Zitro. I don't think that is from one of the larger downtown movie palaces. The downtown palaces had mainly upholstered chairs and sofas in their lobbies and foyers.

Unfortunately most neighborhood theatres bought their furnishings "off the rack"... so unless you can find a picture of the chair in a particular lobby [[still it's not a 100% guarantee it came from there), it becomes very difficult to determine the provenance of such furnishings without written documentation or theatre connection [[oral history of family member or acquaintance who once worked there...).

Thanks I knew it was a shot in the dark, I've looked over it thoroughly for ant markings and can find none. I guess the story I have in my family lore will have to be the one my kids will have to pass along to theirs.
