Hope this works like I think it will. Looked for the original thread from 4 years ago but couldn't find it. Here's the final version, minus a few changes. What do you think?

And the necessary computer...is there a better or more appropriate place?

OK, updated permissions. Hope it works now!

My church just renovated its fifties school and offices, ruining what had been untouched since its original construction. I wish they would have went this route, instead.

Very nice. Only thing I could suggest is a frame photo of President Eisenhower somewhere and a tabletop American flag.

You can be assured that in the next version of these photos, that which you have suggested will be done! Thanks for the help.

Updated with some in line pics. Also, it's tough to tell, but in the pics there's a giant boxed in area coming off the wall (it's covering a massive air duct). Behind the wall in the little hidden alcove is where all the modern stuff like the computer, surge protector etc is. I like it because from the outside it doesn't break the appearance of the era and I only use it when I have to.

I'll try to break down the sources and prices of the items in case someone's curious:

Plug in GE Made in USA Clock - Salvation Army $10
Matching vintage lamps - Branson Antique Mall $5 each (Shades from Wal-Mart, $15 each)
Credenza - $20 Craigslist
Desk - Free (Donated from my daughters private school. They needed space, I needed a vintage desk).
Artwork - $6 for the 60's Sunday School pictures, $20 for frames at Hobby Lobby
Multiline Phone - $30 ebay ($20 was shipping)
Desk Set - Ebay, $10. Search for Park Sherman. You'll find so much NOS stuff it will blow your mind - and super cheap.
Calendar - Retro Shop in Oklahoma City, $5
Typewriter Table - Junk Shop $3 (plus enamel spray paint, $2)
Brown and Gold Cart - Flea Market $3 plus $3 in gold paint
Gunlocke Chairs - Resale shop, $40 for pair
Last Supper Picture - 50's paint by number, $10 flea market
Gooseneck lamp - Retro shop, $15
Eames Reproduction - $275 online (the splurge)
Globe and other artifacts - found around the church.

Any questions just ask.

I was at Goodwill today and there was two chairs like that for 4.99 each. If I had the space, I would have brought them home.
