Movie theater seats

Theater seats, a bench with 5 seats, manufactured by Irwin Seating Company in the United States. They were originally gray in color. The seats were originally installed in the Andrews Theater at Keflavik Airport around 1970. Around 1985, the chairs were sent to the Defense Reutilization and Marketing Service, where they were purchased by Ívar H. Jónsson, chairman of MÍR. Members of MÍR then painted them red and placed them in their cinema, located at 3 Vitastíg, in the middle of the Cold War. When MÍR moved from Klapparsstígur to Hverfisgata in 2006, the association gave the movie theater seats, along with other equipment, movie theater seats, and the association's spare parts inventory, to the Film Archive.
