Child's desk (Heywood Eclipse) and chair (Kenney Bros & Wilkins, Boston)

Description

 I'm not sure if "Heywood Eclipse" is the manufacturer and/or name of the model; the seat has more definitive labeling, "Kenney Bros & Wilkins, Boston." Both the desk and chair are height-adjustable, though I'm not sure how high or low the seat can go. It's currently at 14" (height of seat off the floor), and I imagine it couldn't change more than 2 or 3" in either direction.
