RARE & BEAUTIFUL ANTIQUE VINTAGE WWI? US NAVY BINOCULARS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION
I have tried to obtain as much information about the history and background of these binoculars as I could. Unfortunately, my efforts have not been too successful.
I believe they date back to at least World War One and possibly even earlier than that. They are truly in BEAUTIFUL SHAPE with their natural wear and patina.
To me, they represent an authentic artifact and a brilliant piece of art and magnificent craftsmanship.
I have tried to include the very best photographs I could to allow the buyer to evaluate these binoculars carefully. There is some language and wording inscribed on these such as US Navy and a number clearly legible on the black tubes of the binoculars.
There is also some cursive writing on the binoculars that I cannot completely read. One side appears to say “something” Club and the other side appears to say “something” Glass. I have tried to show that wording in the photographs.
The only flaws or defects I can detect is a crack in the adjusting wheel that moves the lenses in and out. However, the knob still works just fine to adjust the lenses.
A piece of leather is missing from one of the binoculars’ tubes with a much smaller piece missing on the other tube. These flaws should show up well in the photographs.
The only other thing I can detect is a slightly dented area in the leather tube on the one that is missing the larger piece of leather. Other than that, there are no other flaws or problems that I can detect or am aware of.
As stated earlier, these binoculars are in what I would consider to be EXCEPTIONAL condition given their age and use.
I am not a dealer in these items, so I am not in a position to offer returns or refunds. All of my items are being sold “AS IS” with no warranties or other assurances. Thus, please review all of the photographs very carefully for measurements, condition and other details.
This is an EXCEPTIONAL and HISTORIC item.
Thank you for your interest in my auctions.
