I got another radio lamp
#1

I went to a flea market today and got this radio lamp for $20.0.
It has to be rewired but I do like the style. Two in one week isn't too bad..

Where's the radio?

Is it supposed to sit on top of radios????
#4

I thought radio lamps were those that had radios in them.

Neat lamp but like Mike, wondering where the heck the radio is! I think Art is right. Love that lamp. Would you take $40 + shipping? Icon_clap

Sorry Jerry,,,I have waited for years for a radio lamp, so I am not selling this one.
Just look on ebay under antique radio lamps and you will see some of the prices they are asking for them.. Of course at those prices , some of them stay on ebay and never get bought.

If something you want lingers on eBay for years, you could always try to negoiate with the seller. There is a hance he will listen to reason.
