One of the goals of the FSA was to teach people new and marketable skills. These furnishings seem very modern for their era and it would be interesting to know who made them and if any of the pieces still survive.

    I totally agree that they’re very “modern for the era”. If I had guessed, I’d have thought the early 1950′s.
