This extraordinary large Saturn lamp dates to the mid 1930’s and was associated with the 1933/34 “Century of Progress” World’s Fair in Chicago. Here the fair’s Saturn motif is complimented by strong machine age design of contrasting chrome and black finish. It is unknown whether this lamp was an “official” World’s Fair product, however it is certainly of that period and genre. This lamp has been restored and refurbished and is in excellent working order. The original chrome finish is intact and in displays well. The black surfaces on the base have been restored with satin black enamel. The black ring on the Saturn globe has been re-touched. The original push switch socket has been retained and interior bulb contacts have been cleaned and polished. All wiring has been refurbished with new period reproduction rayon covered twist style cord and appointed with new vintage style plug. This lamp utilizes a standard medium Edison base light bulb. Light bulb is not included. IMPORTANT: ABOUT THE SHADE. Approximate dimensions are as follows. Height to top of socket: 14-1/2. Saturn globe diameter: 5-1/2. NOTE: While the lamp displays well overall, upon close inspection one can observe the superficial wear and abrasions on chrome surfaces, particularly on the globe.
