Stuart Schneider is an interesting man with an interesting website full of old flashlights and flashlight history. It also appears that he is a lawyer and he has a few other "museums" on his site as well. (Some people pack a lot into a single lifetime.) But, for now, I will just direct you to the flashlight museum because it is so cool and it will take up a bunch of time just looking at and reading about these beautiful objects.
