WW2 era, Electric, Bicycle, ‘Convoy’ lamp.

In some wartime photographs, examples of these small electric torches can be seen mounted to the lower bicycle frame.
Approx 3 ½” in length and 1 ½ inches wide, the metal housing was made to carry a single D-Size battery but had no provision for an on/off switch. When not in use the battery was simply removed, turned and re-inserted to break the circuit which also prevented the lens and springs from rattling.
With some paint loss this example is priced to reflect rarity, please refer to the photographs as they form part of the description.
