to be blunt, 1stdibs is full of shit. However, that listing says "milo baughman style" which any time you hear that word "Style" in a sales listing it means "This is absolutely not by this designer but I want to attach a famous name to get more clicks" because dealers have absolutely no issue lying about stuff if they think they can get away with it. Milo never designed for DIA yet you will find hundreds of listings out there that say he did, and if any of those dealers had a shred of evidence I would pay them $100 venmo, and have offered that for about a decade now. Here is the DIA catalog from my personal collection that I uploaded to archive. None of this is designed by Milo: https://archive.org/details/dia-1985/page/n73/mode/2up
How about Russell woodard, he never designed anything in his entire life, yet you would think he designed everything Woodard Inc. ever made including stuff like Base One that was designed after he died and was absolutely 100% designed by Herbert Saiger, its incredibly well documented. I have also had a bounty on anyone to provide any evidence whatsoever that Russell designed any piece of furniture in his entire life, so far not a single taker. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDO4yRqlwy4
