Boy Scout Regiment Brass Telescope in Wood Box

This is a very beautiful 16" (40 cm) Boy Scout  Telescope in the vintage spyglass style. This 25 mm. telescope has ground glass optics and produces a sharp image; it focused by altering the length of the telescope by pushing and pulling. A treasure that is sure to impress the most distinguishing telescope collector.

Magnification is 16X and is designed keeping in view the requirements of a nautical scope - I.e., greater field of view. More the magnification, less expansive is the field of view and for a nautical scope this 16x specification coupled with the 25 mm lens gives the best combination of steadiness and field of view with satisfactory magnification.
