Folks,
Here is another lamp that I have had in my phonograph room for quite a while. It is a Faires model #3174 brass adjustable tilting lamp. This is one of the nicest, all all-original examples I have ever seen. All brass construction with the exception of a cast iron weight at the underside. All original sockets, screws, wing nuts, etc. are present and functional. Large spherical joint with wing nut below the socket that has a Faries patent date of December 2, 1913. Designed to be used on a desk, or hung on the wall.
Looks fantastic on a wall beside a phonograph. I seen lesser examples of this exact lamp sell for $350.00. This one is priced to sell at $175! SOLD
New wiring with a period correct plug end has been installed, making this fully functional lamp ready to use.
Contact me at [email protected] with interest.
Its available until someone commits on it! Shipping is additional at cost only. Can be delivered to Stanton's in November.
Thank you
Shawn

The same lamp shade was used for Moe's haircut on the Three Stooges.
