<p>[QUOTE="VintageVibe_MI, post: 12410967, member: 107142"][USER=37]@verybrad[/USER] — Yes, that’s a great point, those sockets were definitely available and used for decades after the patent was initially issued. However, what's really interesting is that on eBay, just one of these standalone Benjamin 3-way cluster sockets can go for $300-$400 on its own. I actually noticed the stamped maker's mark completely by accident! An appraiser originally valued the entire lamp at around $300 without even looking underneath. It’ll be fascinating to see how it all shakes out in the end.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
