Rocking chairs like this…

Rocking chairs like this were mass produced items, most made in Grand Rapids , Michigan, then the furniture capital of North America and they sold through mail order catalogs such as Sears Roebuck and Montgomery Ward during the 1890's. They were a hot item during the fad for Victorian furniture 1980- the early 1990's, but now often sell for under $50.00 at auction.
