Zeiler Bakelite Wehrmacht Flashlight

Original Bakelite Zeiler flashlight. The red and green shades are in good working order. The button tabs are present, but the top one is ripped. The tabs are made from some kind of impregnated paper. The lower button tab is there, but if you unfold it too much it would probably crack and fall off. This one is actually waffen amt stamped on the belt loop, which is something that you do often see on these Zeilers. The bakelite is quite nice with just very minor chipping and wear around the edges where the front and back meet. Its an overall decent to good example. The HRS maker inside is a useful tool for dating items made by that company as the factory was taken to the Soviet Union after the war and, when the company rebuilt, they created all new markings. No battery included, but it is in working order.This one came out of my collection, it was tied for first place example with another one I had and I finally decided I only need to keep one.Repro batteriesandspare bulbsavailable separately.
