Item: For your consideration we are presenting for sale a nice vintage Hi-Lite desk lamp / task lamp that dates back to the 50s or 60s. Manufactured by Eagle (catalog no. 340), and still retains its original label on the bottom of the base. The base also features an on/off rotary knob which is used to control the functionality of the lamp. The neck of the lamp between the metal base and the shade is completely flexible, and allows the lamp to take on many different possible configurations. The lamp comes with a lightbulb, and it is in fully functioning, working order. The lamp has a small pull-out metal tab located at the base which allows the lamp to hang on a wall as a fixture, if desired.
