The lamps look to be household perhaps. That is a Bear wheel alignment tool, used to measure toe in. Probably 1950's - 1960's.

The lamp is very similar to the body side lights on a 1919 Hudson Turing Limo. I think that several auto makers used a similar lamp on large closed sedans in the late teens.

Evan I looked it up and you are right it does look like the Hudson.

Evan is correct.

That is an automobile lamp, typically on enclosed cars.

On sedans, sometimes they were mounted near the roof line on the door post.

Years ago, a friend of mine had a Studebaker five passenger coupe that had that style of light on the cowl. I've also seen them on other cars.

Don't know if they were standard equipment or aftermarket.

Electric cars used similar lamps mounted at various locations depending on the body style. However, the lamps with which I am most familiar on electric cars tend to be more elaborate.
