More Information

Please note that we are not optical specialists and as such the functionality of any such item cannot be guaranteed.

Overall aesthetic condition is fairly rough. The wooden barrel has lost much of its finish. The brass cylinder at the objective end is detached from the wooden barrel. Brass elements are all heavily worn/tarnished with widespread scratching. Objective and eyepiece lenses require cleaning but appear free from damage. Internal lenses are harder to assess - though clearly very dirty. Leather-clad tube in poor condition, with one end detached and the other lacking.
