Luftwaffe issued hand operated torch

Code: M22871

SOLD

BRAUN 'Manulux'.  Brown bakelite torch/flashlight with integral dynamo generator operated by means of a lever on the top.  In working condition but the lever is slow to rise after being depressed.  It seems to improve with use so perhaps sticky with oil/grease?  The case in good condition though the markings are faint and a couple of screws are missing.  With the original bulb and lens.  See p.96 “Luftwaffe Vs RAF” by Mick Prodger for a similar example.  Stock code M22871.
