Number 8, the student brass lamp with blue shade, is very similar to this pewter lamp with blue shade, listed at $17.99 at Office Depot: http://www.officedepot.com/a/products/593671/RS-To-Go-Banker-s-Desk/

I noticed it when I was in there the other day. Definitely not as nice as brass, but it's at least available nationwide for a low amount of cash.

Wish I'd found that bookcase! I just finished oiling a similar four-shelf unit that cost me (if I remember correctly) $200 at a second-hand shop 15 years ago. They're great, really keep dust (and inquisitive pets) out of the books.

Aaaargh. Another barrister bookcase with a rock-bottom price... not in San Francisco. Woez.
