    Description

    Significance:
    This beautiful piece of advertising is stylized with the original "Dr. Pepper Phos-Ferrates" drink developed in Waco, TX in 1885. The Wheat & Iron logo is one of Dr. Pepper's first trademarks.
    Dating:
    By the lamp itself it would be difficult to give an approximate age, however the original outlet identifies two separate patents by Eagle:
    2,675.531 (US2675531A) - 1956 --> 1977
    D165,981 (USD165991S) - 1951 --> +14 years (1965)
    This gives the lamp with the original outlet a vintage date range between 1956 and 1965.
    Condition:
    Lamp is in very good condition. There are no chips or cracks with light yellowing from age. Most of the aging shows on the top and the base rim of the cylinder.
    The 3-way light works perfectly. There are no frays or other damage to the cord, which is rather long and a tad stiff.
    Description:
    This is a cylinder shaped lamp with an opening at the bottom with a drop light socket that illuminates the stained glass-like body of the lamp. The body itself is NOT glass, but a type of resin/acrylic that was produced in the 60s. The top section has a traditional light socket for a standard bulb, harp and finial. The finial may be original or a decorative addition. The cylinder area of this lamp is 16” tall and 9” in diameter. From top to bottom, this lamp measures about 33”.
    You can light this lamp three ways - bottom only for a very nice stained glass effect, just the top for traditional room lighting or both at the same time.
