Title: Old Bench
Post by: Diana723 on March 22, 2007, 05:46:43 PM

I have an old bench that I purchased at an estate sale about 15 years ago, on the bottom of the bench is a label, but unfortunately part of the label is missing, and it's very hard to read, but it says,  "ttimer & Sons   Manufacturers of Chairs, Rockers, Costumers & Stools   Orwell, NY".
 
 I did a little research, and found some popular Lattimers out of Orwell, NY, but nothing about a furniture company. So, I'm not sure they are the "ttimers", I'm looking for.

 Has anyone heard of such a furniture company?
