Unwanted Chair #4

Polaroid snapshot of an old chair left out by the road for the trash pickup in front of my house in Fort Wayne, Indiana. This chair belonged to my grandfather, John Westerfield. When my son and I moved into my grandparents' old house, we put this chair in the garage. The chair was damaged by water when the back part of the garage roof was torn off by the big storm that hit the area in June, 2022.

I photographed it in the evening shortly before sunset. Not long after I photographed it, some people in a tiny car stopped and grabbed it! It wouldn't fit in their little car's trunk, so it was hanging out the back; and as soon as they drove off, it fell out on the street!
