In the
early days of television, people attempted to
protect themselves from the new machines with
bright talismans, creative lamps that provided
back light that was believed to protect the
eyes. These lamps took on fantastic forms, the
most popular among them being panthers and other
animals like Siamese cats. They came in any
number of forms, though, and sometimes doubled
as vases or planters. Herein nearly 400 photos
explore the many forms of TV lamps, from a barnyard
full of horses, roosters, ducks, and swans,
to all manner of conveyances like boats, wagons,
and cars, and an international collection of
people and faces. Current market values are
provided for the collector and antiques dealer.
1950s TV Lamps With Price Guide is a
great resource for 1950's TV lamps, with fantastic
high gloss pictures nicely categorized by theme
and by manufacturer. If you are a collector
of 50's memorabilia, this is a must!
