If any of you have tried using the lower style Operators Lamp in the dark, you will understand why that hood is a great idea. Even with the solid red lens in use, the lamp gets very annoying, very quickly.

The shade comes ready fitted to the WS22 and WS62 lamps, but for some reason the WS19 lamp was supplied without it. It should not be difficult to make shades up out of thin sheet brass or tinplate.
