My favorite new seats - on Alaska at least - were on board the new 727-200s when they were introduced (along with Gold Coast Service) back in 1979. Wide, deep, well cushioned and upholstered in a colorful red/orange/yellow patterned fabric, they were supremely comfortable right from the get-go.

And, IIRC, even the bulkhead row had tons of legroom! Flew one from DFW-SEA on the AA/AS interchange flight.
