I was just wondering if anyone has identified the part or parts that make up Egon's headlamp in GB1? It is seen around the 23:00 minute mark in the film, when they first meet Dana Barrett and are questioning her at the station. Below is a fairly clear screenshot of Egon wearing the headlamp:

Perhaps this prop/equipment is already covered somewhere in the forums, but I couldn't locate it.

Doing a little further research, I suspect he's wearing some kind of scientific or medical headlamp.

I haven't been able to find an exact match, but this one (supposedly from the 1950s) is similar:

If anyone has come across anything more accurate, please do share your findings.

Hows it going CM. I just joined the site and I have no idea what kind it was but I do like your determination. I will have to re-watch when I get home tonight and see if I can help find this thing. You probably found the right one and maybe the prop guys modified it.

The band is definitely a different color. The light looks very similar to the one in the movie, but as for the cord, I thought Egon's headlamp was cordless? I'll have to go back and review the video to see what you're taking about.

Unless we get some feedback from veteran doctors or dentists on the forums here, I'm not sure how much more I can uncover here. I'm not finding many good resources online about vintage medical/surgical headlamps.
