The mellow tones of antique natural oak have become popular accents in the many American households and are appreciated as much today as by their first owners. This first generation of mass-produced American furniture, which utilized the ingenuity of the machine age for its construction and catalog marketing for its distribution, has created a recent popularity that has caused its value to soar. With hundreds of fine examples, this book covers all types of furniture from armoires to tables. Famous makers such as Larkin and Strickley are well represented. This study will make a welcome addition to the literature of American antiques.
