WWI US Navy Deck Officer MARITIME Collapsible Brass TELESCOPE Spy Glass Vintage
VERY good condition early telescope. Marked \"US Navy Officer of the Deck Power 12 1/2 1920\". Also stamped with the makers mark, Wollensak Optical in Rocester NY.
This is quite a historical scope....the crude serial number etched in, and crude stamping for the US Navy marks indicate this was a donated scope, prompted by FDR\'s \"Eyes for the Navy\" program during WWI. He was assistant secretary to the Navy during the war, and called on the American public to donate their binoculars, spy-glasses, etc. to the Navy for the war effort.
It extends with no problems, scope will focus perfectly by sliding the first section. All the glass here is in spectacular condition, the image is sharp and bright through the eyepiece. Size is about 16 1/2\" closed and 23\" extended.
