    Fortune Lamp Co. 1961
    I haven't been able to find these lamps on any website. Any ideas or suggestions would be great.

      All you need to do is google "Fortune Lamp Co. 1961" - several different ones are shown. -- Fortune lamps were not a well known company in the 1960's and never became mainstream. What's interesting about their lamps is they are really nice pieces of art work that are just starting to become collectable depending on which lamp you have dictates the value. Very "retro" looking.

      Thanks for the reply. I have googled and looked through every site I have come across but still haven't found these exact lamps. I actually bought these at a yard sale for $20 and was going to chalk paint them. I simply liked the shape. It wasn't until I started to clean them that I saw the marking and decided to wait on the paint. Ha ha.

      I just bought one dated 1969.
      Does anyone know if this was the last year that the Fortune Lamp Co produced lamps?
