ABSTRACT:
A multipurpose light with mirror for use with a lady's handbag, or use with articles of wearing apparel to assist the wearer in performing operations at night which without sufficient light would be unsafe or difficult to perform. The basic structure is a container made of light diffusing and transmitting material having energy cells or batteries contained therein together with two light emitting devices, all connected with appropriate wiring and a three-way switch. The switch permits one of the light devices to provide light for illumination of the light diffusing and transmitting border of the container, while another position of the switch turns off this light and turns on the other illuminating device for projecting a beam of light away from the container. Fastening means are provided along one surface of the container for attachment of the overall device to the interior of a lady's handbag, or to the back of a wearer's jacket, the back of a user's glove, the front of a wearer's cap, the interior of an attache case, and the like. Another surface of the container is provided with a mirror which is so mounted that the soft diffused light of the light transmitting and diffusing border and container will softly light the mirror with glare free illumination. Thus, the user may use the light and mirror combination to put on proper makeup, or the device will softly illuminate itself to serve as a safety and warning device if being worn by the user. Also, the device when using the second light emitting structure will provide sufficient light for performing job tasks and emergency repairs, etc.
