Found the last piece of the puzzle
I just talked to Heidi at Mid-Century Furniture Warehouse in Philly and she says she has some Goodform armchairs left. Can't wait to pick one up in June!
I did a search yesterday, and Heidi's prices are great, especially compared with some I saw online. Yikes! Are you going to do the reupholstery yourself?
Yep, it's a pretty easy reupholster job. The fabric gets clamped to a removable seat and back plate by metal tabs. All you need is a flathead screwdriver and some adhesive.
