Close-up view of 2 boxes of Stakmore chairs sitting on the curb outside the H. H. West Company's offices on Omar Avenue. The boxes sit side-by-side on the sidewalk at center. They are both damaged and sit on the sidewalk upside down. Printed on the boxes, it reads (upside down), "IMPORTANT! KEEP THIS SIDE UP STAKMORE ARISTOCRATS OF FOLDING FURNITURE STAKMORE CO. INC. OWEGO TIOGA, CO. N.Y." The sidewalk they sit upon stretches on a steep upward angle from right to left. Behind them at right, the front of the H. H. West Company's offices stand in partial view. It is parallel to the sidewalk and stretches back towards the left.
