Multilamp photoflash assembly

A photoflash assembly which utilizes a plurality of percussive flashlamps in one region of the assembly's housing and a plurality of percussive flashlamps in a second region separate from the first. The lamps in the first region are fired when the striking mechanisms associated therewith are actuated by movable actuators, e.g., elongated preformed wires, which move in response to mechanical actuation from one of the housing's mounting structures. Lamps in the second region are subsequently fired when the striking mechanisms associated therewith are actuated by the movable actuators which move in response to mechanical actuation from another of the housing's mounting structures.
