20,000 Leagues Under the Sea



The Sofa



A closeup shot of the right armrest of the sofa.  Notice the crack.  I suspect that this sofa was used in several films after 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, which would explain the distressed nature of the prop.  Given it's overall small role in the Salon and it's lack of specialized design (i.e., it was not a Goffic* piece that was specifically for the Nautilus), it must have been an ideal candidate for period pieces throughout the late 60's, 70's, and 80's.  I am currently attempting to research the history of this and some of the other "generic items" used in 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.
