    Luftschutz candle lantern 38 ?

    I just got this great Luftwaffe lantern. I think it is called "Luftschutz Kerzenlaterne 38" (air protection candle lantern 38) and completely made from aluminium. On the bottom are the following stamps:

    -Luftwaffe-eagle
    -FL. U.V. (Flieger-Unterkunftsverwaltung)
    -GIBE (maker ?)
    -37 (date)


    The holder for the candle was missing so I made a new one (without any damage to the lantern of course). Can someone tell me more about this lantern? Maybe a picture of a complete one?

        Hello Jens,

        I can´t tell you much more about your lantern but I´ve got one similar to yours although mine is made out of galvanised metal and the glass in mine should be milkwhite as in yours , mine has clear glass and this seems not right by some other collectors I know...

        Hope these pictures are of some help to you!

        All the best, Eric
