    Hi everyone, newbie here. I’m looking for any information anyone might be able to provide about this lamp, which was my grandmother’s. There are no markings on it anywhere, unless it’s under the felt bottom. I don’t remember it ever being out at her house, but I was a kid and wouldn’t have noticed something like that anyway, lol. She probably had it in her house in the 50’s or 60’s, if not earlier. Thank you in advance for any help learning about it.

      They were sold by Montgomery & Wards during the late 1950's.

      Thank you. Yeah that’s the right timeframe I’d guess.

      They are generally called George and Martha Washington lamps. You can look that up on the internet and get tons of info.
