Summary: New DUNBAR catalog versus 50 version
Comment: This is basically a reprint of the 1950 catalog --- OK for collectors, but you can get the new color version at the dunbar website www.collectdunbar.com Wormley was a great
furniture designer -- nice to see the designs are back in production.

Rating: 5
Summary: DUNBAR is a classic mid-century modern success story.
Comment: During the 50's & 60's , Ed Wormley and Dunbar were leaders in the fine furniture industry. Leslie Pina's reprint of one of the catalogs from that period gives collectors a nice reference point. The company is about much more than what is presented in this basic presentation, hopefully someone will write a more comprehensive reference on the entire collection. I've heard word that the company is coming back and going back into production with some of the primary pieces. That would be great! The book on Edward Wormley is also worth checking out.

Summary: Mid-Century Modern Furniture Must...
Comment: Great starting point on Dunbar.. I agree with the review that said they miss some key points about the company and the top designs, but this is only a reprint of one of their catalogs, not the definitive story of Dunbar.

Enjoy it for what it is.
