    I just got this neat lamp and rewired it, etc. I am trying to figure out what it actually is! It has "hooks" that open up (under the base) that overlay's the top of a bed board, etc. It is obviously a directional type lamp. Just wondering if anyone knows anything else (based on the picture).

    Thanks for your help.

      It's pretty much a hit-or-miss proposition. Your item has to be one of the 47 items on the opening page at the time the person that knows about your item logs in. If it is item 48, it will be on page two and they will never see it.

      pooters35 waited 3 months 21 days to get their answer! Actually, I think you have your answer. Its a reading lamp that hangs over the headboard. Not unique enough to catch every eye but interesting enough for you!

      What else ya got ?

      Besides, like they used to say in the Navy, "Hurry up and wait"! LOL

      Thanks Savoychina1 for you response. "...Its a reading lamp that hangs over the headboard..." - sounds about right OR it might be used to highlight a painting. The darn thing is so bright with a 40 watt bulb - it would be very destracting as a reading lamp. SMILE

      What do you mean the Navy would say "Hurry up and wait!" That saying applies to swinging by the Motor Vehicle Administration, Doctor's Office, etc. SMILE

      Thanks again for your response.
