Lolling Chair

Season 20, Episode 12 of 13

When there was a Declaration of Independence to read, no doubt some of the founding fathers would have chosen a favorite "lolling" chair to use. This kind of chair with an upholstered seat and back was popular then and has come down to us today as a classic form still much used and loved. Antiques expert Gary Sullivan helps Norm with his research, and old friend Bobby Gantt shows him what's involved in the upholstery.
