Vintage High Chair by Williamsberg Chair Factory, Inc., Williamsburg, Ohio

How lucky those people were to work and know your grandfather!  I think he was an "angel" on earth!  I feel very lucky to know this history of MY high chair.

  After my parents' death I brought the chair back to my house just last year.  They had lived in Indiana on a farm and took good care of everything they owned.  The chair is in excellent condition.

I am 64 and my husband just finished a light sanding,  and polyurtheraning the high chair!  .  He is out now trying to find a spring for the one tray slide and I am making a new safety strap so our grandson does not slide out the bottom!  William just turned 1 so he will be able to sit and join us at the Christmas table!!  Thank you. 

Again, I am very happy to know about your grandfather.  Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas.

Nick,

Would you have access to the plans for the high chair/play table that could be sent to us?  My husband is retired and needs a project.  He feels this one would be within his capabilities.

It sure looks like there are those of us out here that have fond memories of this particular childhood product.  It's a memory we'd like to pass on to our children.  We lost our mother 23 years ago and in the months/years thereafter lost the whereabouts of our family's high chair.  We are looking for a replacement at antique and thrift shops.

Thank you and your family for such a great chair/table.  We live in Boise Idaho, so your family has touched those far and wide.

I am in need of a replacement tray for a Safe-T-Bilt HiChair that was used back in the late 40's and early 50's and made by the Williamsburg Chair Factory, Inc. of Williamsburg, Ohio.  Does anyone know where I could find one?

My dad got this same chair when he was born in 1943- He had several older sisters who "charged admission" for people to come and see the new baby, they took that money and bought this highchair for him. It was passed around our family and eventually my son used it when he was a baby 1995-97 before he outgrew it. It had been refinished over the years, and after my son used it, I had it refinished again- it now sits as a display piece in our dining room. The only missing things from it are the decal of the teddy bear and the very bottom piece of the foot rest. It still has the wooden tray and leather strap.

I just purchased a high chair that looks so similar to this, except the decal / painting on the back appears to be a Bunny and a baby duckling wearing pajamas (with hats) sliding down a banister.  Mine has no stamp or label to indicate it is a Williamsburg Chair Factory high chair.  It does convert (by flipping it) to a play table or desk.  I would love to know if anyone (espcially Mr. White) would be able to tell me if it could possibly be a Williamsburg chair factory Safe T Bilt high chair.  My husband and I were both born and raised here in Williamsburg, Ohio  and have family ties that go way back to the Chair Factory days (and beyond)  but so far, nothing to confirm this chair came from that factory.  Any help is greatly appreciated. 

Thank you!!  

I have a 3 in 1 high chair, it is also potty chair and activity table.  I have not been able to find out much about this chair, would like to know when it was made, and the value.  It is missing the potty and the picture on the activity table has been sratched almosto off.
