Any known history of lamp
« on: April 25, 2015, 10:20:21 am »
I haven't been able to determine much about the history of this lamp and I'm hoping someone can help? Any ideas of history or estimated vale is much appreciated.

Thanks, Michelle

Hi!  Can you please post pictures of the metal fixtures at the top, bottom side of the lamp and the electrical plug?

It's just a felt cover on the bottom.

These lamps are typical of many made in the 30`s and 40`s !! Look on ebay for lamps with a colonial couple !! There are usually quite a few !!  Could have been made by any mfr.!! They were pretty common !!  Most sell for around $20.
