Description

I found this antique porch swing at a barn sale in Jackson County, Michigan.  The gentleman I bought it from was 82 years old and he told me the swing had belonged to his grandmother. There were two broken slats which I repaired and toned to match the beautiful original finish.  I have been searching for information regarding its value for months with absolutely no luck.  I realize antique swings are very rare as they did not often survive, but I never suspected that I wouldn't be able to find ANY information at all.  Can anyone help, please?  Thanks to all.
