Binoculars

These Galilean binoculars have a leather-covered body and sliding sun shades for the objective lenses. The two eyepiece tubes are focused with a central wheel. There is no separate eyepiece adjustment. The binoculars are contained in a lined, leather case with a carrying strap and belt loop. The maker's name appears in the lid of the case, with their mark also on one draw tube.
