Luftwaffe Lw signallamp

[Snoopy]

Hello

I am new at this forum, and I would like to show you some items from my modest collection. I posted a couple yesterday, and here comes another. I hope you like it.

It's a handheld signallamp used by the Luftwaffe. The lamp is marked with a Luftwaffe "Fl." number. The manufacturer was "Zeiss Jkon A. G., Goerzwerk Berlin"

Thanks. I have never tested it, but it looks complete, and in good order.

The signallamp itself is complete, but I forgot to mention that the plug is missing, so I really don't know what type of plug that was used on these lamps. It still has the original cable.

If you all are interrested, I will post another type of Luftwaffe lamp from my collection.

Please,

Can you post a close up of the nomenclatura?

What was the use?

Do you have a wartime pic showing one?

Thanks

Hello

I have no picture of it in use, but I can imagine that they used them on seaplanes, for sending messages to ships. I have posted a blurry picture of the label, but I think it's possible to read what it says. This lamp came from a former german airbase, in Norway.
