Sterling Electric Company Fat Shaft Desk Set

Extremely rare Sterling Electric fat shaft with marked transmitter back cup. This candlestick is taller than most and it has the unique curved hook transmitter mount that is unique to Sterling. It also has a marked, Sterling receiver. The company was founded in 1898 in Chicago but moved to LaFayette, Indiana in 1899. You will occasionally see a Sterling fluted shaft candlestick (which looks almost exactly the same except for the fluted shaft) but there are not many Sterling fat shaft candlesticks out there.
