1858 Foster & Lee sofa

[Canadian maple]

I came across this sofa in a community an hours drive north of Toronto, Ontario.  It is identical to the sofa in the 1858 Foster & Lee catalogue except for the additional piece of decoration attached to the skirt.  I believe Foster & Lee were New York City wholesalers and obtained their furniture from at least two different manufacturers.  Has anyone heard of Foster & Lee?  Canadian Maple

Have not heard of those guys but thanks for sharing the photos.  One for the files....
