When Cherner first submitted his design to Plycraft he was told that the chair would not be produced. A few years later, in 1961, Cherner discovered his design for sale in a showroom in New York and being credited to a fictitious designer named ’Bernando’. He sued Plycraft and won the case.

These chairs are marked with a stickers that mentions the correct Designer, Norman Cherner, so they have been produced after 1961. Two of the chairs maintain their original label.
