Hello everyone!

Hi everyone! Thought I'd introduce myself to my fellow collectors. My name is Will and I've been collecting lava lamps for over 25 years. I only collect one brand (Haggerty a.k.a. Lava brand) and I currently have 46 (I think) lamps. I remember the exact moment I became a lava head. I was about 5 years old and my mom took me to a store that had 2 lamps on display - a gold liquid/red lava lamp and a blue liquid/white lava lamp. I was captivated by them. Later on I'd even ask Mom to take me back there just so I could watch the lamps. Got my first lamp as a birthday gift when I was 9 - a gold/red lamp. I'm not sure I ever turned it off LOL. I didn't start collecting till the 90's when lava lamps made a comeback. Anyhow that's it for my brief introduction. I'll post pictures of my collection in a bit. I'm so glad to meet other collectors out there. Nice meeting you all!

Same here. BEST products catalog showroom. They were probably at other places also but that's where I remember them from back 40 something years ago!
