Cast Iron Period Lamp, Smirnoff Leaves You Breathless (Advertising?)

By mommacha43, 14 March, 2013
Description

I have an old (antique) lamp that I purchased at an antique store in 1992 or so for $50. It is black, cast iron and about 6 feet tall. It kind of looks like an old street lamp. 

The shade has "Smirnoff Leaves You Breathless" on all four sides. 

While I have found a couple of pictures of it online (no prices), I have been unable to find ANY information about it after searching for a couple hours here and there. 

I am interested in selling it, but need to make sure I am asking a fair price. 

It is in good condition.

Thanks in advance for any help!
