What a lovely Continental! No more than 15 watt bulb in this, please! Not only don't you need higher to get it going, but these really hold in the heat and the plastic bottom can warp.

I'm very glad to know that owning this lamp will enrich my life and make me a better person, Jim.......Snort!  lol

I knew you were a fan, I saw those you sold on ebay and the "prices" they brought!  WOW   I think I lucked out on this one........I thought it was a fake cause the top was on backwards and it looked funny.  Blob told me what was wrong, thank Heavens!

Huge fan of this lamp.  Great one to own in case you want to bankroll the purchase of a Colossus.  Here was the one I used to own:  http://oozinggoo.ning.com/forum/topics/gem-lite-continental-oval-ex...

I had noticed that, and also wondered why the black cap on top was not flush with chrome part.  Thank you so much.   That will hopefully be an easy fix.  I hope that's all that's wrong with it!

One thing is, the top metal part is on backwards. See the stock photo below:

OM Gosh.  I guess it wasn't a knock off then, and I didn't make a bad goof.......Whew!

I've seen these pop up on Ebay occasionally and a I've seen them sell for over $1000.

Critter, you are a scholar and a gentleman.....lol   I searched all over this place for that link last night and don't know how I missed it, but I did.  I paid $65.00 for it.  Yippee!!!!

Is it a Gemlite, Critter?   This came from a little junk store where my sisters live and I told them to buy it.  I ain't tellin how much I paid till I know about what it's worth.  ;-)
