Dr. Egon Neustadt, The Lamps of Tiffany Studios, The Fairfield Press, N.Y., 1984, pp. 15, 16 and 179 for an illustration of both the shade and base as shown in the The Tiffany Studios Album
It is clear from a close comparison of the glass in this shade to the illustration in the "Tiffany Studios Album" that this is the same lamp as that in the photograph. The "Tiffany Studios Album" was an in-house bound portfolio of Tiffany designs which were available for order. As would be expected, exceptional examples of the Tiffany Studios work were used as illustrations.
