WW2 low voltage blackout lamp
Got this from an LG member. Cool that it still works. This is an early one, probably used in WW2 with a bakelite base and white shade. Later on, they had a black base and coloured shades as they were still made as children's nightlights, not blackout lamps, and branded "Moonlamp". It uses a 6v torch lamp and a step down transformer, running on mains.

They do come up on Ebay quite regularly and while hardly at a give away price, they are affordable. Mine was £20

@RobTDCI: That's a decent price for a wartime era lamp cos I'd expect them to be like super expensive (over 80 quid)
