Field flashlight produced in Holland by Philips and used by the German army in WW.2. Was nicknamed "squeeze cat" for the noise that was in the drive of the dynamo mechanism for its functioning. Infact, no batteries are required. A lock on the rib allows you to lock in the closed position the handlebars driving the Dynamo, making it easily pocketable. This particular flashlight was invented by Ing. Kalff, and its production began in 1940. On the rib are indicated the model: type 7424-03, the technical specifications: 2, 5 volt-0, 1A, the place of manufacture in English and French and the Philips brand. Painted in green. In excellent condition, running. Curious object suitable to complete the equipment of the German soldier of all ranks.
