Default crosley field....

Finally able to post these photos of 6 Crosley Field seats with two figural ends that we found at an antique store in Ft. Myers about 10 years ago. They still had a vintage moving company's wire tag attached to them with reference to the previous owner's home in Cincinnati. For some reason, somebody sandblasted nearly all of the original orange paint off of them, except in some of the cracks. I would never consider repainting old stadium seats, but in this case we were forced to because there was only bare wood and iron. These photos were taken before we did anything and the seats were separated into a section of 4 and a section of 2. I don't have a finished photo, but we mounted the whole section on a single base and they're now 'functional furniture'. We also have a 3 seat wooden section from Wrigley and wooden Tiger Stadium sections of 3, 3, and 4 that are all functional. The 4 seat row of Tiger Stadium seats sits in the lobby of our business for customers to enjoy.
