I have a pulley hook lamp with a plaque that says 'R.M.S. Queen Elizabeth' on it. I am trying to gather information about its origin, age, condition, and potential value without spending a lot of money. The lamp has some numbers on it that are hard to read, and it is old and in pretty good condition. It does work. Is there any additional information or steps I should take to learn more about this lamp?

I am wondering if there is a general value on a marked Eisenberg Ice US PAT(NNN) NNN-NNNN ring? The patent shows it was filed in 1965 and approved in 1966.

I have a Gerlach-Barklow Co. perpetual calendar. It is casted in brass and has an ornate scroll around the box. The box is accessible through a screw on top and bottom. I am unable to find this piece anywhere on the net. It shows that it was patented on Aug. 21, 1928. I think it was made possibly made for a desk top. The bottom has green felt. It was made in Joliet, ILL. What is the market value and insurable value of this item?

I have a 1910 soft leather 11th edition Handy volume issue of the Encyclopedia Britannica, described as being on rice paper, in the arts, sciences, literature, and general information vertical edition. It is in fair condition and appears to be a complete set. What is the significance of the paper type, and is it a complete 32-volume set?

I have a collection of 12 'Women of the Century' plates called Wedgewood Darceau Limoges. Do you have any information about these plates, and do each of them come with their own box?

Could you inform me about the lamps and burners marks, of which photos are attached this message? I have not found any knowledge about these four marks: 'Solaro el Brenner', 'Augusta', 'Made in Germany', and 'English MakeNusun'. Are they dating to the 19th century or after the 20th centuries? Which country manufacturing are they?
