The look of these is iconic! During night time, headlights were necessary on all vehicles, including bicycles, to ensure safe travel. However, even a candle is visible from a long distance away, so Blackout Slit Covers for headlights were used by both sides during WWII to avoid detection. These covers ensured that minimal light was visible from above, a necessity during a night Air Raid, when any light source could become a target. While the light produced was small, it was still enough for slow speed navigation during the blackouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis small example is for a bicycle headlight, and measures 3 3\/4 inches across, and is made of light rubberized fabric, with an elastic band on the back to hold it in place over the headlight. Quite interesting and ready to display!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Original Items","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31688656093253,"sku":"ONSV6327","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1524\/1342\/products\/ONSV6327__01.jpg?v=1593911718","url":"https:\/\/www.ima-usa.com\/products\/original-german-wwii-bicycle-headlight-blackout-fabric-slit-cover","provider":"International Military Antiques","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
