Oh yeah, mine, too. She smoked Pall Malls. So the plastic covers developed a slight sepia tone over the years.

Ah the memories. And when she got a computer, *that* got a plastic cover, too!

Sounds rather uncomfortable. (Unless you just took the plastic off every time you sat down, which just sounds like a hassle)

nope you only took them off for "company" but to your average old lady that had them whatever counted as company never happened.

When I first moved out on my own, I needed a couch. I ended up buying this sweet lime green paisley print couch from the 50's I believe that was under plastic and only used in the "sitting room" which was never used. The lady who had owned them passed away and her son and daughter-in-law wanted to get rid of them. I bought them for 200$ (Couch, love seat and chair) and they were like brand new. So pretty much forever lol but I love that couch.
