I asked the lady who sold me the lamp if she was going to sell it. She replied it would probably have to go. She called me on Friday and asked me if I still wanted it. I told her yes and my buddy Kevin went and picked it up for me. Don't worry, she had it for over 60 years....from Hawaii and it hung in a house she purchased so it is probably much older than that! Normally I don't go for the dead animal theme, but it's a beauty, isn't it? $50.00 was a real bargain. I had to promise I wouldn't go to the flea market last Sunday in order to buy this, I am o.k. with that! PTD
