This combination desk lamp digital clock came in Saturday's mail, it oozes Mad Men deco.
The lamp/clock combination was manufactured by Smith Metal Arts in Buffalo NY (they're still in business as Smith McDonald). They did then and still produce high end desk sets. This Lamp/clock combination is their SilverCrest model 202-36, (Peter Muller-Munk designer). When I got it I plugged it in to see what was not working and would need repair, surprisingly the clock and the lamp both worked. I took the florescent tube out of the light to replace it with less green LED tube, to my surprise the tube that was in the lamp had "OCT 56" stamped on it, the 64 year old tube still worked. The last picture contains some other desk accessories that were available in this line.
The lamp/clock combo is 16" in length, 5.5" in Depth, and 13" in height unextended.
The clock is 8" in length, 3.35 in depth, and 3.75" tall.
beautiful deco!!!
