[QUOTE="sabre123, post: 3261315, member: 8258"]Sadly, they've been replaced with new cheap ones. Whenever I see the old brass ones at estate sales, I pick them up. Of all of the ones I have gotten, only a few have not worked when I wire them up. I would not be surprised if some of the repair shops take the good ones and tell customers they replaced them for "safety" reasons when they rewire the lamps. If it were my lamp, I'd get a matching pair of period pieces and replace. [URL]https://tinyurl.com/ybumye37[/URL][/QUOTE]
