Description from the seller

Title:
Original 2-seat theater seating from Cologne with Willy Millowitsch signature (1999) – Seats 109 & 110

Description:
For sale is a genuine and rare piece of Cologne cultural history: an original 2-seat theater bench (folding seats) with the original seat numbers 109 and 110.

The absolute highlight: On the back of seat 110 is a personal handwritten dedication and signature by Cologne legend Willy Millowitsch.

The inscription reads:
“For Doris and Jürgen! Your Willy Millowitsch – 10 July 1999.”

Special highlight for collectors:
Willy Millowitsch died on September 20, 1999. This autograph was signed on July 10, 1999—just under two months before his death. This is one of his last autographs left on an authentic piece of theater history.

The two-seat bench is in original condition (see photos) and shows signs of wear consistent with age, which only enhance its historic charm and character. The signature on the wooden panel is very legible and exceptionally well preserved.

A truly magnificent piece for collectors of theater memorabilia, Cologne nostalgia, and fans of the famous popular theater. Perfect as an eye-catching decorative piece for your home, home theater, or gallery.

Details: 2-seat row, seats 109 & 110 (signature on seat 110).Condition: Used, original vintage condition.Pickup: Due to its size and weight, local pickup only (location: [Enter your city here, e.g. near the Dutch border / in the Netherlands]).

As this is a private sale, the item is sold without any warranty, guarantee, or returns.

If you are seriously interested, I look forward to receiving a realistic offer!
