    Googling for Aida images I found this image which indicater AIDA 203. If I click on it it drives to me to an image of a model 1500. So, what is it? I don't know the picture owner.

    Juan. It is what it says. An Aida model 203, which is a 600 cp kerosene table lamp made in the 1920s. I have it shown in a mid 1920s Ratanamala catalogue from Thailand and that is probably where that image was taken. I know there are at least two examples of this model there. ::Neil::

    I'd say the ´pic was taken in US. Let me see if I can go back to it.

    Could be. I know there are two in Thailand but I do have a vague memory of one turning up in the US as well so you may be right. Rare piece either way. ::Neil::
