No, these are not the lamps that Aladdin rubbed and a genie would appear to grant him three wishes. These are kerosene lamps made by the Aladdin Mantle Company of Nashville, Tennessee. They produced metal and glass lamps from the early part of the 20th century until present day. The Aladdin Knights have a gathering each year. We have been Aladdin collectors for years. We attended the 1998 Gathering in Nashville as speakers. We talked about glass repair. We had a great time!
As I am writing this I see our Aladdin cobalt blue glass table lamp sitting on a shelf. We came home from Nashville. with it It sat in the center of the table at the dinner that evening. Each chair around each table had a number on it. The person whose number matched the number on the lamp won it! Wayne was in the right chair. We have great memories of the week! Wayne's Aladdin membership number is 1445. He joined in 1978.
