Re: EDWARDS WAKEFIELD SHAFT LAMP

I think larry is know desparate to sell his lamps as
they are not selling on e-bay.

Re: EDWARDS WAKEFIELD SHAFT LAMP

Except, my good man Mully, that these lamps are not for sale. I am just sharing the details and pictures of super special lamps with other genuine collectors.

And of the lamps I have had on e-bay recently, only three have not sold. The two Abbot R&J's - one went to Australia, one went to France. The Rescue Lamp sold in the UK. The Andre Achille went to France as did the Laidler Davy. I have some checks for sale on e-bay at the moment and some very special checks ready to go on shortly.
And in the same period, I have bought three very special lamps, 150 good checks and two special badges.
Whilst you, my good man, Mully, have been wasting your time telling lies and faking in your shed. And when the fruits of your fakery break cover, the members of the NMMA will be there to send a warning to everyone of your villainy.
Have a good day y'all
