Church Pews
Lee Ohmart
>I have been helping a local group unload some church pews. They date to somewhere in the 50's or 60's, are not antiques, as someone had suggested, so interest is limited. One auction house said a guy bought something like these from them, chainsawed them in half. made a shorter bench and sold them. Personally, I'm only an amature and would not really be interested in doing something like this myself. The pews are staight and measure 11'4" wide, 35.5" high and 21.5" deep. The seats and trim are a dark finished wood, probably oak and the sides and back are plywood painted white. There are 2 book holders on the back of each one. They have 31 for sale and are loacted in Bangor, Maine.. Any interest?
