Thinking on
Your Feet.

There you are, bless you, taking the time to read these words instead of just looking at the pictures and checking the prices.
     What can I say?
     People who are interested in the kind of things that this company of mine offers just naturally seem to be readers.
     Our catalogs have unconventional long copy (a marketing no-no) that’s been accused of being literate. It’s filled with references to Alexander the Great, Kanchanaburi, Tolstoi and Vita Sackville-West, Wittgenstein and chaos theory, Georgia O’Keefe, “Pudge” Heffelfinger, Roger Livesey and Louise Brooks, but our readers keep on reading.
    “Thanks for bringing back memories of Jermyn Street,” a letter will say. Or, “Where can I get that P.D. Ouspensky book you referred to?”
     If you’ve read this far, you may be interested in one of these support systems for what is clearly a favored activity.
     Furniture for your mind.
     Keep your venerable Webster’s 2nd Ed. perched on this device for frequent consultation. Standing up will get your juices flowing, and your lumbars will thank you.
