Description from the seller
Very complete and original German military Einheits-Laterne, delivered in the original metal transport case with inscriptions and an inventory card. This set was issued for military use by the Bundeswehr and is based on the classic Wehrmacht design, used for field lighting and signaling.
The crate is clearly marked with:
Version number 6260-12-120-7905 – “LANTERN, UNIT – with accessories”
Including a BWB stamp (Bundesamt für Wehrtechnik und Beschaffung), which indicates official military issue.
Contents of the set (particularly complete):
Original standard lantern
• carbide burner with carbide cups
• Petroleum input
• Candle insert
• Multiple wicks
• Interchangeable signal lenses:
• red
• blue (police blue)
• orange/yellow
• clear
• Funnel, reservoirs and inserts
• Original table-of-contents card in the box
• Original metal transport case (gross 5.8 kg)
This lantern was used for, among other things, nighttime marches, signaling purposes, and field use. The different colored glass panes enabled targeted signaling.
Complete sets like these are becoming increasingly rare, especially with:
• original box
• complete accessories
• several original colored glass panes
Very suitable for collectors of militaria, Bundeswehr equipment, field lamps, or historical military lighting.
