Liebhardt's Biography Eugene Weston III designed a line of furniture prior to moving to San Diego. According to Eugene Weston III, "It was around 1950... I was partially inspired by Stan Hawk who had a barbecue designed by Whitney Smith. It was called the Hawk Brazier... I came up with a stacking stool about 10" high & 13" in diameter,on 3 legs. A triangle piece of canvas was the seat. The Hawks used these stools in some of their promotional brochures. Other pieces were also in the line. A company called Modern Color, bought the line from me, but it didn't go over too well. Most of these items were made by a metal worker in a one man shop in Pasadena, a few were made by Brown Jordan who had a small factory in Pasadena at that time."
