Vintage UL-Listed Portable Magnifying Lamp Model 3700 with Ring Light & 120V Power Module

Condition: Used; lamp is in working condition. Clamp/mount is NOT included. Cosmetic wear/scuffs consistent with age and use.

This vintage portable magnifying lamp combines a central magnifying lens with a circular ring light mounted on an articulated (pantograph-style) arm.
