Antique Binoculars - Paris Sportiere - Army & Navy - WWI - with Case
French made military issue during WWI, some wear on the covering in particular around the focusing wheel, the lenses are all fine - clear, no cracks, chips or haze. However, at some point in their life these glasses were dropped and hit on the bottom edge of the right eye tube - the lens survived in great shape but the metal rim took the blow and protected the lens. They are still fully functional and focus to a bright, clear image. However the image in the right tube is more oval than round. I tried to show the damage to in the last two photos. It does not affect the appearance of the glasses but it is a reality of these fine binoculars\' long life.
The original case is well worn and missing its top and strap.
Study the photos carefully. If you have questions or wish an additional photo, please ask via mail.
