    I picked this up at a second hand store about three months ago. The funny thing is I seen it there several times before but this time it was marked down to 2 dollars. I never looked at it close before and was surprised to see it was a reverse painted, signed lamp.
    It stands 30 inches tall with a wood base but the glass cylinder is painted on the inside by Betty lou in 1969. She did a great job on the cardinal and flowers. I think most of the people thought like me it was a transfer and didn't really look. I just learned to look a lot closer now.
