Chalkware items often show their age, but this ballerina TV lamp is "new-old stock"...having just emerged from storage, in its original box, since the '60s! Ever seen the fiberglass shade on a TV lamp look this white?

Here she is in all her glory! I start getting emotional when I see one of these lit-up...snif, snif...

The paint on these lamps is perfect!

As with the pink one, the cord is still in its original, protective wrap.
