This wartime 3 draw telescope from Broadhurst Clarkson & Co. Ltd. is in excellent optical, mechanical and cosmetic condition.

Much information in available on the eyepiece drawtube, beginning with:

TEL. SCT. RECT. MK. IIs

Broadhurst Clarkson's logo is then stamped, and underneath:

14352 O. S. 126  G. A.,

Then a military arrow.

5cm (2") aperture (actual glass measurement), and 80cm (31.5") when extended from the sun screen to the eyepiece.  It is good optically, and is in excellent condition throughout. The optics remain clear, and the stitching is intact. The leather has been scuffed in one place on the sun screen, and the strap holder on one end is split, but there are minor issues. It shows a nice patina with no dents, even the carry case is in excellent condition! Unusually, the eyepiece has a flip down cover which exposes a glass filter instead of the customary metal shield. 

It's not a lightweight instrument, but I'll ship Internationally.  So that there are no surprises, if a price for your country is not shown, please contact me for a shipping quote before bidding.  Thank you.
