How long did Johnson Chair Company Chicago remain in business?
The Johnson Chair Company of Chicago IL began making chairs in 1868. In 1899, they made chairs for the US House and Senate. In 1918 they showed at the National Furniture Exchange of Chicago in July of that year. In 1939 they copyrighted the phrase "Selling helps for those who sell Johnson chairs."
The Johnson Chair Company was at 4401-4531 W. North Avenue, Chicago, IL., according to a brochure for the Johnson Pos-Chair. A.P. Johnson died in 1907, and Johnson Chair was taken over by his sons and nephew. One of A. P.'s sons, Arthur L. Johnson, who died just last week (March 2008) at age 87, lived in Delavan, WI, after selling the company to Helene-Curtis in 1948. The trade name "Johnson Chair" was sold to Gunlocke Co. of Wayland, New York, which continued to sell "Johnson Chairs" until 1979. There are earlier Chicago addresses for A. P. Johnson & Company (1875-1882) and Johnson Chair Company (1883-1907) at 233-235 North Green Street. Some of this info comes from the Chicago Historical Society and some from "A History Of Norwegians In Illinois," John Anderson Publishing Company, 1905, pp241-244. The famous Chicago Fire, apparently spared Johnson Chair Company. In 1899, Johnson Chair Company made chairs for the US House and Senate.

Where can you get an appraisal of your 1917 Chicago Portrait company picture?
You are looking for a personal property appraiser, preferably one whose subspecialty is fine arts, photography, or antiques. There are two national societies which accredit personal property appraisers, the American Society of Appraisers (http://www.appraisers.org/) and the Appraisers Association of America (http://www.appraisersassoc.org/). Their members have passed educational, ethical, and experience requirements that qualify them as professionals. Of course, they don't work for free. If you're looking for a free or lost cost appraisal that's accurate, don't look online, but instead look for a local appraisal clinic at a fair, charity fund raiser, or a show (antiques, crafts, etc.). If you think the picture might be really valuable, consider taking it to an auction dealer, such as Christie's or Sotheby's, who will give a free opinion of value.

The portion of Michigan Avenue south of the Chicago River is part of the original townsite plat of Chicago, and has always been known as Michigan Avenue or Michigan Boulevard. With the 1920 opening of the Michigan Avenue Bridge, Michigan Avenue was extended north of the Chicago River all the way to a connection with Lake Shore Drive north of Oak Street. This new avenue was created by widening the former Pine Street between the river and Chicago Avenue. The portion from Chicago Avenue to Oak Street had previously been known as Lincoln Park Boulevard. Various blocks of Michigan Avenue have been given additional, "honorary," names in recent years, but those are not used by the public.
