Phonograph Lamp called the Fairy
This is going to be auctioned on ebay. Pretty high estimates. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Phonograph-Lamp ... SwEgVWRP7Z

Re: Phonograph Lamp called the Fairy
The fact that it has a spring motor crank and an electrical cord coming out of it tells me that the original electric motor is no longer present. An original motor is almost impossible to find. The reproducer is missing the needle bar and has a broken casting that holds the needle bar. These original reproducers are unique to these Fairy Lamps and are also very hard to find. Good luck to whoever wins this auction.
