Bidspirit auction | Merchant Marine Brass Binoculars

Merchant Marine Brass Binoculars - Binoculars still work decently. Optics are decent. But the lenses can use a cleaning. Leather cover is loose in areas and shows heavy wear in others. Extends and contracts with ease. No cracked lens. Provenance: Acquired from a single owner private estate collection originating in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. The collection was carefully stored in Slatington, Pennsylvania for approximately five years prior to being consigned to the auction house. The consignor noted that the collection had long-standing ties to the Gettysburg region, reflecting a deep appreciation for historical preservation and Americana. This fresh-to-market estate offering presents an exceptional opportunity for collectors, as the items have remained largely untouched in storage for several years before entering the auction market.
