Abstract
A reading lamp is constructed with electronic lamps which offer an opportunity to provide a variety of colors and shades of white light with a minimum of emitted heat. The electronic lamps can be disposed in an alternating pattern about an incandescent lamp or concentric rings of electronic lamps of different colors can be provided.
