Eames Pavilion / Henry Ford

Good news- the Henry Ford Museum purchased the Eames World's Fair Pavilion that was in the last  LAMA Auction.

I can't think of a better place for it to end up. Here's the press release. The post I did on the pavilion is here.

It will be in good company with some great Eames items already in the museum's collection. 

The collection includes the Eames fiberglass shell chair on the right from John Wills, the boat builder 

who produced the first prototype.

Here's another photo of it.
