Hello, My father, Ralph Watkins passed away last week. Daddy loved his Aladdin Lamps and has quite a collection of them. We spent alot of time together and he would show me how to clean, take apart, put back together, order parts, and find treasures at flea markets. During that time I heard him speak of each of you. I thought yall would like to know about his passing and that he will not be at the April Regional Meetine in Pa as he and mother had planned.

Mike Stehman had total left hip replacement surgery on February 20th. He is recovering well (as is his caretaker). He will be at the April Eastern Lamp Collectors Meet in Somerset albiet with a walker. We don't anticipate that he will be doing much room shopping!
Rare 4 burner Extended Grape Angle hanging lamp (EG-42?) with all original parts in exquisite working order found by Ken Teeter at a recent auction. The lamp is not documented in Angle Lamps - Collectors Manual & Price Guide by J.W. Courter. The lamp appears to have a brass finish on tin. It is thought that there are only two lamps of this model known to exist. Ken had the lamp on display at the Mid-East Meet at Richmond, Indiana this week (October 22-26, 2013).
Appearing outside of Mid-East Meet Central Operations - Room 224 (October 22-26, 2013) was this super-sized scroll recounting this "story" of the Aladdin Lamp. The scroll was about 8 feet tall!
www.AladdinCollectors.org will now accept advertising for estate sales and auctions that sell some lighting as part of the sale. For $150 NAALC will feature an ad on the new "Auctions & Estate Sales" page. The ad will include basic sale/auction information regarding date, location and auctioneer with a representative image of a lamp for sale. The ad will have a drop-down of detailed lot listings and a link back to the auctioneer's web page or auction zip page. Hosting of detailed lot images can be provied by NAALC for a resonable additional fee. We are also able to monitor traffic to the auction ad for the auctioneer/host. The sooner the ad is placed prior to the auction the more exposure it gets. Users of the service reported extreme success in reaching a broader national and international audience at a substantial reduction in advertising costs.

The Eastern Meet (Somerset, PA) held its 35th event this April. To commemorate the event, trading and lampshow; the event had a commemorative patch made (not necessarily a first). Only registered members (approximately 70) of the the meet received one of the patches (not each attendee). The patch is very artistic and collectible. With such a limited number made for this - the oldest, continued meet - after the Gathering; this may become a most collectible item.
The Aladdin Collectors website www.AladdinCollectors.org welcomes a new Knight Michael Snidecor of South Ramat Golan, Israel. His new membership was recognized in the recent March, 2013 copy "The Mystic Light of the Aladdin Knights". This new member may have escaped the attention of the average Knight; however, without checking with the "Bright Knight", we think he is the first Knight in Israel. More importantly, an unsolicited order from our recently launched "Merchandise" page was made by Michael. He did not wait for confirmation of the additional shipping for foreign shipping and paid for his interesting purchase immediately on-line through PayPal™. His purchase shipped the next day. Michael confirmed when his shipment safely arrived (with NA2LC information and membership invitation). We are not sure if Aladdin ever had a presence in Israel, but it is certain that Michael has an interest in lighting products. I, as webmaster, had a very smooth transaction with Michael. Welcome to the NA2LC organization and shalom!
Fred Stevenson out did himself at the Somerset show with year with this "enhanced" model 8 Aladdin lamp. The base of the lamp is a solid brass candle holder. What will he think of next and the price tag on the lamp?

The "Susie" like TV lamp was seen for sale at the Richmond Mid-East Meet in October at the lamp show. It is believed to be one of two in existance. Notice the power cord exits the lamp from the front. Actually the crystal figure is not attached to the base and was inadvertantly turned around! Identified this as a G-70-14 with special base from page 70 of Aladdin Electric Table Lamps and Bed Lamps by Don Carey in the recent reprint of his book available on this website.
The Club (NAALC, Inc.) recently aquired the Alacite crucifix pictured below. The crucifix was mentioned in the Courter's Aladdin The Magic Names in Lamps p. 94 Fig. 186, 1997 ed. The figurine was not a production project of Aladdin, but an after-shift "whimsie" producted by a worker after work with left over glass gathering. It is believed that there are only 5 of them in existance. Bill Lohmeyer negotiated the acquisition.
