Item History & Price

Information:
Reference Number: Avaluer:6847269Primary Material: Brass, Glass, Leather
Military Branch: Probably British NavyOriginal/Reproduction: Antique Original
Country/Region of Origin: United KingdomType: Binoculars
Original Description:
Large pair of Galilean binoculars,  with International Flags possibly by Ross, England.Measuring 16.5cm closed and 22cm extended, they weigh 830 grammes.There are nearly 100 flags illustrated, some of which I believe are Marryat's Signal Codes.Excellent condition, no case.Clean optics, though could be improved if dismantled and cleaned inside.Covered with lots of international flags including merchant and war examples.Barrels are protected by an early type of celluloid or mic...a, or similar material, not sure exactly.One lens hood has a slight ding though this has no effect on the overall appearance nor function of the binoculars.Lens hoods come all the way off, unlike other binoculars I have seen from this era, but it seems to be intentional.Difficult for me to give an accurate date, the buyer should do his own research if he considers it to be an important point, but I would estimate that these binoculars dates from between 1880 and 1910.Any eBay member input is always welcome.Shipping is below cost to USA, Canada and other countries outside Europe (save $21).Shipping to Europe is at cost.
