A Second War German Daimon Model 2233 Multi-Coloured Signal Flashlight

This is a second war German signal’s flashlight, manufactured by Diamond under model number 2233. It consists of a sturdy steel (magnetic) case painted in dark olive-drab, featuring a 38 mm diameter lense, three vertically slidable dials for light colour (white is standard, which red, blue, and green), a black bakelite light switch on the bottom, as well as a black leather strap on the reverse. The flashlight is sealed via a latch towards the left side of the case, that, if opened, reveals the interior of the flashlight - consisting of a slot for the 4.5 Volt battery back (missing, a spare bulb, a contact node, as well as the bulb assembly. All slidable dials move move smoothly - if pushed upwards, a lens retracts from within the housing, and over the bulb, thus colouring the light. The switch turns toward the right, and locks crisply into the “on” position. Both bulbs appear to be perfectly intact, and functional, if connected to a 4.5 Volt power source. The reverse features a black leather strap held into place via one static hinge, and one pinch-hinge, that allows for the strap to the looped around a standard service belt. Overall, this flashlight measures 122 mm x 66 mm, and is in very fine condition.
