An illuminating subject
Tony, great work.
The illuminating apparatus for the No.7 Director is interesting and your pictures have solved a small conundrum for me.
I picked one up several years ago but it is slightly different from yours as it has an attachment that illuminates the graticule rather than one that fits in the replacement cover. (My director has the replacement cover but this was already fitted).
The wander light is dated 1941 so these must have actually been useful (unlike the No.5 illuminating apparatus which was reported to be useless)
