Leg is too skinny and slightly bent at the knee missing the fishnet stockings, the shade should be gold with shorter black fringe

sorry,  I have one that looks  closer to the movie one I'll sell for the same price, plus shipping.  Besides this thread isn't totally  off the Soda Machine  topic. It was omitted in the movie, but in the story of the Leg lamp, the major prize was  offered in a contest sponsored by a soda  pop  company who oftened had a Lady's  picture, well a Ne-Hi pictire  Cool

you know I would really like to have one , but it's cold
out in the garage this time of year, And that is where the
wife would have me sleeping  if I ever brought one home.
 
 Even though it is cool I'm going to pass biggrin.

Funny.. I was looking at these today... ( So it may have been me that posted stating I wanted one cause... well... I want one) And that would be my ONLY Christmas decor for the house
well.. besides the tree....
People busting their hump hanging lights, Blow up Santas, white painted deers that move...
All you need is a picture window and this lamp... and it would be your house people would drive by to see and remember!
Just afraid the wife would go water the plants and lamp would end up just like the one in the movie! ... “You used all the glue on purpose!....Nadda Finga!”

I think it was redriderlamp.com
looks more like the real thing... there are a few companies out there making these...
But come on they are sweet! or has anyone seen the Hula lamps from the “Pearl Harbor” movie
look up Hula Lamp by, I think it's Dodge Lamp?.... Bronze lamps that do the Hula...
when I'm done with collecting coolers and coin-op all I need is a leg lamp, hula lamp
and a Moose Mount like in Abbott and Costello “Hold That Ghost” ( What a tonsel!) then I'm done! smile well.. then there's a Studebaker... Juke... Hhhmmm that's a coin op...
Wayne 60, Eco Air meter... well you get the idea....

YES, the Leg lamp is a Holiday Staple... BUT what Christmas would be complete without the Marty Moose eggnog cups from National Lampoons Christmas Vacation.  you know the mugs that Clark and Cousin Eddie drink out of in Clarks living room.. see photo. there is  a company making them, now but can't seem to feel comfortable plunking down the $$ to buy the set.
