Here's my Lamp Electric No. 1 made by what looks like ER Co. LTD. It has a green resin filter and a yellow resin filter still inside.

That was made by the Ever Ready Co. Ltd. quite possibly in the Park Lane factory, Wolverhampton where my grandmother worked during the war. I used to drive past it every day on the way to work, it closed in the late 70's early 80's and is now an industrial estate.
