Re: Antique Webster Manufacturing Company Wooden Rocking chair
Based on the images it dates from the first quarter of the 20th Century. The Webster Manufacturing Company operated in Superior from about 1891 until 1932. It reorganized and reopened in 1935 and finally ceased operation for good in 1937. Comparble rockers sell at auction for under $150.00.
