Hi, I have Plasto Mfg Co table lamp I received in 1980. The name Glenn Richardson is stamped on the lamp. The base is shaped as a drum with three patriots two playing drums and one playing Flute with a thirteen star American flag behind them. The shade is dark blue with small red and white stars. Might this be worth more than the $20 my daughter wants to sell it for at our yard sale? Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you, Michael Rakus (mrakus617@hotmail.com)
The Plasto Manufacturing Company began manufacturing portable lamps and other plastic items in 1945. A portable lamp with the issue number 53,904 was probably manufactured sometime in 1947.
Many of the lamps are worth prices close to $150 each. The exact price will depend upon the actual lamp and its condition.
I just saw a roy rogers and trigger lamp from plasto mfr. going for $450, on the RubyLane antiques website. This lamp was 15 and 1/2" tall and wasn't very colorful. My lamp is smaller, but really bright, with lots of colors, so I think, maybe it's worh more. Good luck!
The best place to find a deco lamp would be either an antique/vintage store, eBay or Amazon. You would be able to find this lamp on any of those sites.

i have a ef&ef green lamp #502. how much is it worth
you can find a iirc lamp or spooka lamp the swedish word for ghost lamp in any occult store in your community or on ebay.
if you look up a version of your lamp up on the internet like on amazon.com or a place like that it should give you a price for a new lamp but taking off some of the cost should get you what's worth or you could try going to a pawn shope
Your best bet is to find a reputable appraiser for any collectibles you think of value.
