    @Toby Garner

    Can you let us know what the date stamping is on this lamp (left-right numbers), please?

    I’m assuming it’s US.


    Cheers

    @Tony Press yessir, definitely US made. I will look, but most of these were date stamped on the side below the filler cap and were obstructed by the colac paint. It will be 1927-29 more than likely. If I can see the date stamp I will update with a photo.
