Bradley & Hubbard Floor Lamp
I have searched and have not had much luck finding a good reference sight for this. I picked up (some time back) a brass floor lamp made by Bradley and Hubbard with a slag glass shade. It has an attached ashtray with matchbox holder and an attached letter holder?/cigarbox holder? - they sit directly across from one another. (I have seen the table top ashtray combo without the lamp on ebay). The lamp has a straight post with an adjustable S arm holding the slag glass and brass light.

I gave $25 for it an Auction - I am sure it is worth more than that. Just looking for a reliable source of info.

Thanks in advance. :hi:

Also scored this weekend...a beautiful old print of a dark haired woman with a cherub at each shoulder in its original bubble glass frame - from the 20's - $15. Also a hand-thrown deep dish pie pottery piece with blue glaze accents (looks like really oooold stuff but was made in 1987 - stamped by the potter) - $5. I have an apple pie to die for baking right now! :9 :9 :9

Could it be that the attached holder was a B&H add-on available for their standing lamps?

2. Mine looks like that from the top of the pole, down.
My shade is on an adjustable S arm and the shade is a 6 sided brass and slag glass shade.

Thanks :hi:

The attached holder could be an add on but, on my lamp that is adjustable also, with brass stop rings above and below (to not put it up too high or too low) - so I think mine was made with/for this attachment to be with it.
