Let's say that, theoretically, you were asked to quickly and cheaply dispose of a very large amount of wonderful 1950s furniture.
This would be furniture that is in pretty good shape but that looks a little worn around the edges.
This would be understated, simple modern in plain colors, not showy stuff. But brand name modern that is nonetheless nice.
How do you think you would go about finding good homes for as much of this stuff as possible in a suitably efficient manner, were you to find yourself in such a situation?

Junk Junkie on Hampton is now closed, but I never knew if they took others' mid-century pieces. T.F.A. on South Grand is still open. Maybe give them a call.
And as a last resort, you could just set it out on your curb, and others would take care of finding it a new home. Or could ONSLRG use a retro lounge within its N. 14th offices?
Or St. Louis Craigslist is good ... also Freecycle, which is a yahoo group dedicated to keeping things out of the landfill.
Why not preselect an appreciative audience? Post images of the pieces (and groups of pieces) for sale or gift on this website.

Send me an email.
I might take some of it.
*sigh*
Somebody is gonna look back at this in 5, 10, 20 years, and feel incredibly foolish.
You could hypothetically call me at 832-2718. I could hypothentically pick it up in a minivan. I live in a mid-Century Ranch.
