It is what I used to call a "block" generator. It mounts on the front fork blade and projects a feeble beam in front of your wheel...made by a whole host of manufacturers. I have seen Soubitez, Marchal, and Sanyo just to name a few. It is of interest to a few vintage enthusiasts for the "proper" look. Me I much prefer the modern halogen or LED lights.
