My dear old muvver had this very lamp in our lounge (on top of the Rediffusion wooden cased telly) from around 1978-84...........same era as the Honda Super Dream.

Some were oil.
Is this oil?
Seems more like coloured water.

very nice, did you buy it to keep your bikes company, or are you going retro?

It was in my garage mate - my mother bought it in the late seventies.

I thought this was on top of the box when Dirty Den was shot by a bunch of daffs......and Alan Bradley was run over by that Blackpool tram in Corrie.......but no.
By 1989 this had been replaced by some 'fibre optic' affair.....

That would be worth a penny or two now. Genuine article no less......
Definitely oil inside - no question.
Methinks you need to transform the inside of that garage into a retro seventies/eighties environment.....posters, tv, lamps, bikes, helmets, clothes.....

I think Nick may have a Tardis in that garage and he just pop's back and forward to the 80's to pick up new parts, helmets and now lava lamps
