Jim Van Es is a walking library of lamp information. He’s collected and studied lamps for more than 40 years, and he can take them apart and put them back together, which he does at his shop in Virginia, The Wooden Shoe. He is also a Worthologist, one of WorthPoint’s experts. In this video he pulls out an Aladdin lamp, an old Cornelius and Baker and even an old whale oil lamp.
