Oozing Goo - The Lava Lamp Syndicate

Can someone tell me if this item is a crestworth lamp?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=2...

The seller isn't saying anything, and i'd assumed it was a hunter at first, but if it is, it's bidding up a bit sharpish for a hunter?

Also, i was looking at this listing:

and noticed that the top/cap on this old astro seems slightly overlarge? Can someone tell me if they were actually made that was, or has someone been swapping bits out with other lamps?

Thanks John. That's really useful to know :D
I bought the crestworth telstar and just got it through this morning... my first real 'vintage' lamp! :D

i noticed that there's no bottom in it, you can see up into the bulb fitting doo-dah... don't these usually have a blaxk bottom with a crestworth stamp on?

Also, there's a code sticker on the top of the flask that says N198995 - does this tell us anything.
i noticed too that the base is sort of in two parts, there's an inner bit that seems to be joined to the flask (or maybe it's just stuck) that sits sort of inside/on top of the main base bit.

inner part sort of looks like recycled sconce base that's been slotted in?
ooooh excellent! i have scored!
i didn't think you swung that way? :D
