Plymouth Harlee Lamp

Postby IndyTom » Thu Dec 29, 2011 11:34 pm

I know there is tremendous amount of knowledge here on the forum, so I have a question for the assembled masses. At the local Goodwill tonight, I picked up a Plymouth Harlee Inc. Issue 1226 Portable lamp. I appears old and very well made. It is a gorgeous milk glass hurricane style lamp, about 10" tall. I can find out nothing about this company or this lamp. Google has failed me here. When I look for the company name on Ebay, the few lamps that come up are all fetching very nice prices, but I am looking for something more definitive that that. Any input will be appreciated.

PS, I will post a pic as soon as I can get one taken and uploaded.

I found this snippet-

Plymouth Harlee was a company out of Melville NY but it has been out of business for over 20 years now. The best way to find a shade is to keep an eye on GoAntiques.com, TIAS.com, RubyLane.com and of course eBay.com I hope this info helps.  - Erik: 12/28/2004 12:42:11 PM

Thanks Paul. At least I know that I can't contact the manufacturer at this point. This is shaping up to be a real mystery and l love mysteries.
