Hindenburg Trench Candle
I won this nice little piece in a raffle a week ago.
A nice little piece of history. These "Hindenburglicht’s" (Trench lights) were used as a source of lighting used in the trenches of WW1
The shell was made out of a pasteboard and the candle out of tallow. They could burn for a few hours.
You can see the candle is a bit glossy. That is due to the 90 degree heat and humidity we are experiencing now.
Enjoy!
