Here we have a vintage tinplate double arm railway signal in O gauge with a light function that was made in Germany. It is not boxed
The signal is just stamped "Made in Germany" on the stem (see photo 4) we think it could be Marklin or similar
It could be a pre-war item from the 1930`s there are cloth covered cables present
The signal is made from printed tinplate and is about 280mm high
It has a built in light function, sadly both bulbs are missing from the holders and the wires are not connected (see photos 5 & 6)
I think it could be any easy task to restore the light function please look at the photos provided to decide
Looking at the signal we wonder if the lights worked from a battery that fitted into the base? (see photo 8)
Due to the method of construction the signal is a bit wobbly on its base
This is a vintage used item in fair+ condition. It has some signs of wear especially to the base that looks to have been varnished over at some point in its life
We also noticed that one signal arm is missing the green coloured filter from the end (see photo 7)
Please look at all the 8 photos provided to view the signal up close to judge its condition for yourself
Overall a vintage & collectable tinplate O gauge signal with a light function made in Germany that needs some restoration work
It will be sent well protected with full on-line parcel tracking provided
