Are they or aren’t they?

I spotted what appears to be a row of Eames Molded Plastic Chairs in a Laundromat in Boston’s Beacon Hill neighborhood. What do you think, are they Eames? If you live near Charles Street (and are doing laundry), see if there’s a stamp or anything under the seat. I was going to do that after I went to the Paramount (best breakfast in Beacon Hill) but then I forgot to circle back.

Interesting, but those are not Eames molded plastic chairs. Similar shape, but different in many respects, plus the base is not an Eames base.

For the Eames side shell, which did not change from its introduction in 1951-1952.

Stay tuned on the www.vintage-eames.com pages, we'll be posting more and more, and eventually every edition of authentic Eames designs.
