Now this is a little more like it! This shade appears in the last brochure for Aladdin Whip-o-Lite shades that I have access to in my references. It is the No. 388-variegated "ducks" shade from 1949. The design is a little more artistic for this era, and it went over rather well. It was used on Aladdin table, hanging, and bracket lamps. A smaller version of it was also used on Aladdin "caboose" lamps, the history of which came from their use in the caboose of many trains.
