    What do you all think? I got this for literally pennies. I think it's rad. I know nothing about it as I'm just beginning my collecting.

      I can't tell you anything specific about it, but I will offer the clue that "Underwriters Laboratories" (that blue label on the light bulb socket?) would not be the manufacturer of the lamp -- UL is simply an organization that inspects and approves (or not) the electrical wiring and parts of any given household electrical device to insure that it is made in a "safe" way in order to be a consumer product. Any actual 'maker's ID' labels would probably be on its underside somewhere, if they are/were ever there.

      Its style sorta screams 197o's 'Mediterranean' to me, but that's just a guess...others here might be able to narrow that down.

      Oh, and WELCOME to CW! :-) :-) :-)
