Greetings,

Please see:

http://www.friends-at-centralperk.com/Friends-stuff/Props/Lo...

Now, I understand that is a lounger is “an armchair whose back can be lowered and foot can be raised to allow the sitter to recline in it”, but what is a barker lounger? I had thought a lounger manufactured by a firm called Barker, but I can find no such firm.

All the best,

Simon
