This is an antique telescope dating to the early 20th century.

In fine order physically and optically, this three draw Broadhurst Clarkson scope carries the military arrow stamp and is engraved ' TEL. SIG. MK.VI, (BC & Co. Ltd Logo), 7857, O.S. 717 GA, (military arrow stamp)'.

Dent free, the three draw tubes still offer a firm action with the black, anti-glare, stealth paint still largely in existence, the barrel and sun shade leather and stitching in good condition.

The lenses are in good order offering a crisp, sharp image at a magnification of approx. 30x. The achromatic objective lens is 55mm in diameter whilst the eyepiece offers a swivel filter, moderating lens, option.

The oak tripod mount displays appealing patina, features metal tips and is easily attached offering an operational height of 86cm (34"). The clamp engraved with the military arrow and 'Blunt & Wray, London, 1916' on one side and 'Sig. Tel. Stand, Mark V, No. 22988' on the other.

Can be removed from the stand easily to be enjoyed as a 'day-scope' or travel item.

A super scope with good practical field use today, delivered ready for use.
