Small antique rocker, my favorite find of the year. This is the rocker I purchased in Southern IL along with the Jim and Myrtle Greer photos; I like to think it could possibly have belonged to them. It has been recovered with a light cotton fabric over the original tapestry upholstery. The decorative woodwork on the very top is obviously not all original, but someone gave it a good try. If anyone can enlighten me on the style or era or any other information about this rocker, I would be most appreciative!
