Camera Flash Bulb

I'm creating a Graflex Speed Graphic camera which will not work but it requires a working flash on it. Is there a way to rig up a battery with a switch that will allow a working flash bulb on this prop camera?
 
Why wouldn't there be? That's all a typical flash bulb unit was anyway -- a battery connected to the bulb via a switch in the shutter. As long as you can get a flash bulb and socket, you should have no problem.

You can find all kinds of vintage flash bulbs and holders on Ebay.

Good luck!
