Acquired a "like new" old Daimon '40s 2233 flashlight!

Well.... this is too good to be true

This flashlight, in awesome "like new" condition, was made in Germany just after WW2.
It is equipped with a leather strap on the back (in like new condition as well) and an Osram 3.5V / 0.2A bulb.
I put in an alkaline (at least batter than those Zinc-carbon thingys), threw the switch and... it worked as if it JUST left the factory!!!

Look at those pictures:

and this one:

or this one!

Enjoy!

Is that the original chimera?

If it is the original "chimera" I don't know... can you explain something about it??
