Description

Intergalacticwanderer is the Ebay trading name of Skylight Telescopes.  Please View My About Me page for more information.

Showing its' many years with a superb deep patina, I believe this is terrestrial drawtube for a telescope (please note I say believe.  I have no instrument with which I can test this item properly).  It's made of brass that has aged beautifully.

I'm unaware of its' exact original source, but it would have inserted into the focus drawtube of an uncorrected refracting telescope.  It then allows insertion of an eyepiece of the user's choice into the open end, providing a correct image for terrestrial viewing.  Lots of pictures are provided to show condition, measurements, & other details.  The image that this optic produces is inverted both up & down, and left to right.  There are no eyepieces included.

The optics are clean and clear, and the brass is in very good condition.

Any questions?  Please ask.  This is an unusual item, and quite different from normal Ebay stuff...There's a modest opening bid, and from then, no reserve.  Thanks for reading.
