Vintage Eveready by Hobart(?) ; Era?

[aztrek027k]

Please feel free to move this thread if there is a more appropriate sub; I didn't see one. I have a vintage Eveready flashlight. The manufacturers plate is mostly obscured, but I'm pretty certain it's "by HOBART". Looks rather like nickel plated bronze. It works; I'll probably give it an LED upgrade, because such things amuse me, but I'm curious about just how old it is. Anybody here familiar with old the old school tech that would care to chime in?

It's a 1950's Homart, which was a Sears brand. It was likely made by Rayovac to their Sportsman specs at the time.

Just a good-looking Classic right there.
