Child’s High Chair by Donald Harding, c. 1942

Imagine a toddler sitting in this towering structure—it looks more like a throne for a giant baby! Donald Harding drew this precise record of a historic high chair around 1942, likely to preserve the design of early American furniture for future generations. The inscription 'Del. 550' at the bottom tells us this is a technical drawing (delineation), capturing the worn dark seat and turned wood legs with archival accuracy rather than artistic flair.
