<p>[QUOTE="cxgirl, post: 51496, member: 63"][USER=44]@Ladybranch[/USER] I received the Sherwood book on Friday, yea!!</p><p>I'm glad I purchased it, shows lots of very nice lamps. They did offer glass oil lamps but they didn't make the glass - no indication as to what company, they just say 'the best British Glass'. My lamp isn't shown in the book but they do show what they call a 'stove lamp' - looks identical to the large Veritas oil lamp I showed a while ago. I don't have a scanner but will include a link to a closed auction that shows a similar lamp but has the heater/crown top with it. In the book they are cast iron heater tops, the one in the auction is more ornate. I'm going to see if I can find one of those heater tops for mine.</p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Wright-amp-Butler-UNION-Kerosene-Oil-Paraffin-Heater-Lamp-Cranberry-Glass-Shade-/191482565499?pt=UK_Antiques_AntiqueFurniture_SM&hash=item2c9540137b&nma=true&si=bDQzMlpKwhNNkzIPC4r9qS6wpg8%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Wright-amp-Butler-UNION-Kerosene-Oil-Paraffin-Heater-Lamp-Cranberry-Glass-Shade-/191482565499?pt=UK_Antiques_AntiqueFurniture_SM&hash=item2c9540137b&nma=true&si=bDQzMlpKwhNNkzIPC4r9qS6wpg8%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/Wright-amp-Butler-UNION-Kerosene-Oil-Paraffin-Heater-Lamp-Cranberry-Glass-Shade-/191482565499?pt=UK_Antiques_AntiqueFurniture_SM&hash=item2c9540137b&nma=true&si=bDQzMlpKwhNNkzIPC4r9qS6wpg8%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557</a></p><p>Here is a link from the same seller, but look at this shade.
