<p>The Midnight and Princess black/clears were first pictured both on the Elec-Trick box, and on the Elec-Trick catalog page. But they are most assuredly still a Midnight and Princess.</p>
<p>Yes, the Elec-Trick yellow is quite rare. Elec-Trick yellow is no. 11. Standard or lemon yellow, which started with the Princess, is no. 08. Also rare, though less so, is red no. 06 (Princess) or coral red, as opposed to standard red no. 10.</p>

<p> Another interesting note, there is also a lime green base that was to be released with the ElekTrick line but for some reason it never was released with the other colors. Early 2000's they finally released it with the ultra rare #29 globe.</p>

<p>just curious - if there was never an elec-trick with a white base, then was mention on the following box photo for the princess line?</p>

<p>There is also the original Elec-trick yellow which is neon-green wax before it became lemon yellow. Mine came in a Midnight/Princess box labeled 8008 with a white base.</p>

<p>LampHead is correct. There is no Elec-Trick white base. The full range of Elec-Tricks were colored: earlier bases are matte and UV-responsive, later ones are gloss and not responsive.</p>
<p>On the first catalog page introducing the seven Elec-Trick models, also pictured were the new black/clear globes, which came on two bases: Midnight and Princess. If it's a white base, it is technically a Princess, regardless of lava color. Earlier Princesses were more matte than later ones, and they had…</p>

<p>On the first catalog page introducing the seven Elec-Trick models, also pictured were the new black/clear globes, which came on two bases: Midnight and Princess. If it's a white base, it is technically a Princess, regardless of lava color. Earlier Princesses were more matte than later ones, and they had screw-caps. The original Princess colors were: purple/clear, lemon yellow/clear, coral pink/clear. Soon, the black/clear was added (after the switch to bottle-caps.) Later, all sorts of colors came with each base color.</p>
<p>Elec-Trick lamps came with same-color wax in clear liquid. The glossy ones were noted simply as Electric, and were offered in fewer colors, with colored liquid.</p>
<p>If you were hunting for Elec-Tricks, I'd call the following the full collection:</p>
<p>Elec-Trick - red red/clear, orange orange/clear, yellow yellow/clear, blue blue/clear, purple purple/clear, pink pink/clear, green green/clear. Several of these are VERY rare.</p>
<p>Electric - red white/red, purple white/purple, pink white/pink, blue white/blue, green white/green, orange white/orange.</p> The white bases are the same…tag:oozinggoo.ning.com,2013-11-21:1566398:Comment:4971902013-11-21T18:43:54.575ZLampHeadhttps://oozinggoo.ning.com/profile/LampHead
<p> The white bases are the same, there is no specific difference in them at all. I have a red and blue base with the white cords. I have only ever seen the white cords on the Elek Trick series bases but have also seen them with black cords. I think it just depended on when they were made.</p>

<p> Also double check the date code on the cap, they did not switch over to bottle capped globes until 1993. I have never seen one stamped earlier than 1993.</p>

Look in my albums at my elek-trek series. I admit some are home made but have all listed in the lave library. I keep my eyes open for originals to replace my home made but at least I can enjoy all the colors and all my globes are really nice in color and flow

No, I think only the white ones had the white cords. What I understand the white princess and the white Elek-trick are the same base, the white princess came with purple lava and the white Elek-trick came with black lava.

<p>I picked up what I think is a princess base last week at the thrift store and the stamped date on the base is unreadable, but it has a white power cord. Does the color of the power cord denote if its an Elek-Trick or princess?</p>
