    Description

    Here is a rare original Battery Commanders trench telescope marked B.C. Telescope 1915 A1 Field 4° 15' Power 10 1917 F.A. H.K.R. 179.
    Fairly rare to find one of these with the original tripod. Telescope is brass underneath and was painted green for field use. Paint is flaking away in spots. Has 2 of the leather caps still intact. Missing the other 2 large caps. Optics are fairly good and still allow for good viewing. Better viewing from left lens than right as shown. There is some white buildup inside one of the large lenses. Tripod in great shape with normal scratches and dings. HQ is scrawled on the wood of one of the tripod legs. All knobs and dials seem to work as designed. Legs on tripod are adjustable so as to reach quite high.
    Awesome addition to add to your military collection.
    Will be packed extremely well for safe delivery.
