Stock is reserved when checkout is submitted. The dealer confirms shipping and tax and arranges payment directly with you using their own invoice.

So you like bakelite? Not only that we have a great collectible of old bakelite, which is the first synthetic plastic introduced in 1907, but we have an 83 years old flashlight in perfect working condition. It comes with a replacement bulb and needs 2 D size batteries (not included). A few small rough spots where you unscrew the bulb, showing that it has been lightly used. It has been tested and works perfectly.

Scarce to find - This is a 10" long flashlight, longer than what we have seen in the marketplace in the past years - usually they are 8 inches long. And, not only the exterior is in great condition, but even the concave reflector is clean with no yellowing or cracks. Get it while it is still for sale - it is a great item to add to your bakelite collection.

Notes:

• Feel free to evaluate its condition from the detailed photographs. If you have any questions about its condition, or would you like to review higher resolution photographs, please do not hesitate to contact us.
