This rare Paul Goldman bedframe is an excellent example of the Machine-Age period typified by streamlined fluid lines and rounded contours.

Paul Goldman ran the Plymold Corporation outside of Boston in Lawrence, Massachusetts. After supplying the military with bentwood products during the war years, he parlayed the company's advanced molded plywood technology into the commercial market. His line was called "Plymodern Furniture." Production continued until the 1970s.
