Large Sofa

Um...are you sure they aren't just really little people? :)

What does "Scoop Poof" mean?

At first glance, I thought it said Poop Proof or Scoot Proof...

Hmm, Scoop Poof - the little indentations made by your behind disappear when you stand up?

whaddya mean this isn't image association

I used to have a big'un. We called it the shark... that basset is 5' long. He is Neil and passed away, I miss him terribly.
We had it in our Tiki Bar.

I like big sofas, and they are rare. I'm 6'2", which isn't that tall, but I can't stretch out on most sofas out there, including my own.

You would have had room for you and a friend on the Shark.

It appears to mean "segregated"...

And Atlanta, where that picture was taken, is still very segregated today. And white folks keep trying to separate themselves from the blacks. Here in Fulton County, the mostly white northern part of the county seceded (remind you of sumthin) to create their own city. So the county commisioners are gonna git 'em back:

Lazboy makes some pretty big sofas, btw.

I, for one, am disgusted over the number of baby Naugas that gave their lives for that monstrosity.

I believe a baby Nauga is called a Jekyll.

What's Lucille Ball doing to the far left?

Looks like grabbin' ass.

My nauga is not very comfortable:



But it goes well with my other crap:



Sorry the pics are blurry; I think I was drunk on naugahide fumes.

I worked at a furniture restoration place my first job out of college. We had a big book of all the different Nauga Hydes you get get, if you liked that sort of thing. This was in the early '90s. You can probably order it today.

Hey Glatt, that sounds cool. Could you restore that vintage library chair on the left of my first pic? It needs new naugahyde.

I have a 1957 Armstrong Tile order book that would blow one away (if you like that sort of thing).

I personally wasn't involved on the upholstry side. I mostly stripped, sanded, and repaired/reglued the wood peices. But we had an upholstry guy who could redo that chair easily. It looks like just two loose cushions. Is that right? Doesn't get much easier than that.

It wasn't cheap. Back then (17 years ago) that chair would have run about $150 or so to redo. No idea what it would be today. You should look in your yellow pages for upholstery/reupholstery and make a few calls. Naugahyde is still in business, and they may still even have that "fabric." If you sew, you could order the fabric online and do it yourself.
