dietz flashlight police lantern

Had to do some dusting to find this for the weekly theme, along with the railroad lantern. Embossed on the back is "dietz flashlight police lantern new york" with "dietz" in an oval - horizontal lettering. Haven't been able to date as yet, as what little looking I have done shows lettering going vertical on either the back or side.
