My step granddad gave them to me. I'm 53 now. My mom said they would look at the moon when she was a little girl. As I did too when I was young.
They are exactly the same as they were then.. My step grandad wasnt in the war. I'm just clearing out a 43 year old collection. Maybe longer. As this was my very first piece.. So they have always been in my families or my possession..
As I was looking at the dovetail, or cradle underneath, I did notice that there is a screw missing. That shouldn't be a problemOn Jul-03-19 at 16:31:50 PDT, seller added the following information:SORRY.. THE DIRT, OR LINT IS IN THE RIGHT LENS,
