€ 449,00
I am always looking out for nice display items to dress up a nice showcase, desk or bunker cupboard. Recently in Germany I found this 1930's awesome Bakelite desk lamp, there is also a wall fitting on the back so it could also be used as a wall lamp. The cord and plug are post-war. However, a really neat decorative piece.
I was really surprised when I took a look at the bottom. There are two markings: L.Gen Göring and a B.A stamp with number 1748. These stamps are clearly visible, but a blue stamp on a bakelite surface is nearly impossible for photographing. These B.A stamps has their origin from the BAL — Bauaufsicht des Reichsluftfahrtininisteriums, (Building Supervision of the Reich Air Ministry) the BA marking stands for — BetreibsAbnahme, (Operational Acceptance). Where this lamp came from...? It might have been in one of his offices or desks, I presume he had a huge staff, might have been in a division staff building or headquarters. , we will never know
Super rare item!
