Obviously there are a pair of Bourdon pressure gauges (apparently these
look pretty weird under an x-ray scanner!) and one of those Cold War era
lamps I was talking about. Unfortunately the lamp glass is broken, but I
thought I'd pick it up anyway and try to find a replacement. It looks
like the glass has been sprayed red on the inside, probably so that it
could be used as some kind of signalling lamp. Has anyone seen a lamp
like this before?



I have seen them in the USSR. They used to use these in construction
sites for some purposes, I forgot which. Like marking cranes etc.

Naval lamps are like that. Right and left - :-) Christmas colors.

I have a Japanese lamp that is very close in design.
