Lot #243: VERY RARE 1941 Mitchell Lumitone Radio Lamps.

VERY RARE 1941 Mitchell Lumitone radio lamps, made in Toronto, Canada by Brand and Millen in Long Branch, (now Mississauga) Ontario. Model 1260. Both Lamps work, but the radios do not; they are in need restoring. These are all original and come with the glass shades, which are hard to find. It's difficult to find one Mitchell lamp, but 2 is impossible. The radio lamps are made of bakelite with cream and gold paint. The lamps came originally with Celanse Taffeta shades with gold trim and are impossible to find today. The Canadian model of this lamp is rarer than the USA model as only a few were made due to the outbreak of the war. If you can restore the radios, you got a sweet deal. The lamps weigh 8.5 pounds each. Sold as is. Dimensions: 29 inches tall with glass shades by 6 inches wide. Pickup category timeslot {A}
