HUGE Pittsburgh Reverse Painted Winter Scene Lamp

Description: I recently purchased a number of leaded and reverse painted lamps that I am going to be listing here with very reasonable buy it nows. I am a picky buyer of these and the ones I have here are in very nice condition. Why buy a damaged or poorly repaired one when you can get a good one for a fair price from a fellow collector of these? Please take a look, ask questions, and let me know if you need any additional pictures. This is an incredible and quite large Pittsburgh winter scene lamp. Its just massive and incredibly colorful with multiple winter scenes. I will my pictures do most of the talking here, and from these you can see various images of trees, landscapes and even some horses and a carriage in two of them. In terms of size, the shade measures just about 17" in diameter and the lamp is 23 1/2" tall. In terms of condition I see no cracks or chips and the paint is crisp and clear. The wonderful dark brown base has all of its original hardware including matching sockets with their original interiors and ball pulls, pierced cap and finial. It has been recently wired with period style cloth braided cord and comes ready to use and enjoy. This is a very nice and quite beautiful example of one of Pittsburgh's great reverse painted scenic lamps that would stand out in any setting.If you like lamps or need parts please feel free to look at my other auctions or contact me. I am a collector of these myself and always try to offer nice examples to other collectors. I am not making a living at this so can afford to offer things up without reserve or list them at very fair prices so that other collectors can appreciate them as much as I do. That being said, please do not embarrass yourself with a lowball offer thinking you are going to get such a lamp like this. It is just a waste of both of our times. If you want to get a cheap lamp, go to WalMart or Ikea. If you want a nice quality antique old one at a fair price, you have found the right seller. One last note. If you are watching this just to watch and see if it sells, that's fine. But if you are watching hoping I am going to reduce my asking price, that isn't likely to happen as I honestly believe I am asking a very fair price for this. Keep in mind that ebay is one of the only auction venues that does not charge the buyer a premium for purchases like this and if you were to buy this from pretty much any other auction house you could expect to pay a 20-30% buyer's premium on top of this asking price. Still, if you are seriously interested in this lamp and want to discuss this price or some kind of payment plan (which I would gladly accept), please feel free to email me about it and I am sure we can work something out.Finally, I am listing a fixed price of $125 on shipping. For anyone of you out there that buys or sells these, you know that if done correctly this amount won't actually cover it. I am only asking $100 towards whatever the total will be and I will cover the rest.
