Item Description
Lamp is 6x6x7.25" tall to the top of Happy, 9.75" tall to the top of socket. Has square wood base w/high relief painted plaster top while the Happy figure is also solid painted plaster. Front edge of his feet have incised name "Happy" while back has Disney copyright. c. 1938. The lamp post next to him is wood designed to represent a tree. Appears to have the original wiring w/on/off switch and plug, lamp comes w/correct bulb for this English socket but due to its foreign origin, we are not able to test it. The shade has height of 8" w/base dia. of 10" and is fabric-covered w/tassel fringe accent on bottom. There are six separate panels, each featuring a different full color scene. These include Snow White w/forest animals, the Dwarfs including one panel featuring just Dopey, Witch. Shade has overall lt. aging, some small seam separations where the accent fabric joins the panels together, some fraying to accent fabric around top wire frame. None of this is evident unless viewed closely and shade still remains clean. Happy figure has some small scattered paint flakes, several on jacket w/some color touchups, 1/8" flake on edge of hat. Lamp and shade are Fine. First we've seen.
