Over the weekend we went just to look at his stuff, as he has some really nice things, and I came home with this

Hi Catherine
The guy wasn't sure how old it is, and the only markings on it are some faded engraved letters (they are inside the circle on top right above the design and very hard to make out) We paid $75 for the chair.

Christine I really love that piece and honestly 75 dollars was a fair price it would be interesting to know the true value and time period of this piece.Have fun garage sale shopping. Peace. Catherine

Take a piece of paper and either a pencil or a crayon and do a rubbing of the letters.

Thank you so much for the tip

I did it and the letters are P.S.S.F.F.A
I googled it, but couldn't find a match. Thanks again
