They only cost 50 cents each. Less than a tube of paint. Now they form part of my oil painting collection (which admittedly two days ago consisted of one painting):
So, for the price of a cup of coffee, I now have some lovely additions to the boatshed.

Beautiful finds!! I love your header, what a perfect spot to sit and enjoy. :)
That's an amazing find! How wonderful to own an original Thonet.
Great finds. Love the chair.
I am blogging about living on the Northern Beaches of Sydney Australia. I would love you to stop by for a visit. I have added you to my blog roll. I am trying to create a one stop shop for coast lovers. Hope you will stop by to visit.

I'd say three dollars VERY well spent. Wow.
I need your op shops!! You could set up a re-sale shop on line. Buy the good stuff from oppies - and re sell it. Cheaper than elsewhere and still make a profit!
That chair would have been upwards of $100 in Bangalow!!
$2 for that chair!!! You should definately be crowned the Queen of Op Shopping!!!
Fabulous find!! I've had some similar luck, but an original Thonet - now that takes the cake! My Mum and I called them our 'special shops'. Definitely true someone elses trash is anothers treasure!
