Monthly Feature - June 2000
White Rose Lamp
(beside a standard imperial quart)
 
 This electric lamp,  intended for dealer showrooms ,and is very pretty when lit  .
It is made from translucent celluloid  and measures  8"  dia . x 13" tall .
The top, which has holes to allow heat to escape ,  is attached with a wing nut to allow bulb changes.
Too high a wattage bulb proved to be the demise of many of these lamps . Like the quarts and gallons,
they were printed in English on one side and French on the other . I have also seen a larger lamp ,
modeled after the 5 gallon Boy and Slate pail . Sadly it had been melted to about 1/2 its former size.
