    HI,
    I have a Hocking glass company pink depression glass lamp.I’m trying to find out what kind of shade would have been on it? I was lucky i found this lamp at a tiny junk shop. Everyone I’ve showed the lamp to has never seen a pink depression glass lamp before? I knew the moment I saw the piece it was a lamp and everyone else thought i was crazy.It has tiny feet on the bottom and a tiny hole in the top.So what else would it be? Then I found one on ebay just like it,but theirs has some damage not mine.It is missing the electical parts and what ever shade it had, but the glass is in mint condtion.Can you tell me what kind of top it would have had on it?Thank you DEBBY

    Debby, I would really love to have a picture of the pink depression glass lamp. Could you possibly take a digital picture and send it to me? You could email me at jc(at)pinkzaz.com. I will be more than happy to have a look and see what I can come up with for you. Also, I would love to add your image to a gallery I will be putting together as well on this site.
