Keep up the good work! I found those fab Jielde knock-offs from PBTeen here. Any chance you might be able to find some knock-off 1934 Tolix A-frame metal chairs? Sundance and DWR have them for $195 (red and yellow are on sale for $150 at dwr) and graham and green in the uk has them for twice that, but I'd love to be able to find some affordable ones (under $100). Let me know if you find anything! I love your website. Keep up the good work! I found those fab Jielde knock-offs from PBTeen here.
