I've been following this as well. The chair did, of course, begin to look
delapidated by the early sixties. In the picture on Page 50J of Payzant's
_Glenn Gould, Music & Mind_, the chair appears to be completely missing its
seat and a strapped on cushion is in its place. The picture was taken in
1973, but I had no idea the chair was ever in that bad condition. Does
anyone have any ideas what I'm seeing?
