<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 44402, member: 44&quot;]Don&#039;t know what the 63 stands for. Agree with af, iffff 63 is a date then no C of O; however believe it is a model number. I do have a number on the bar connecting the eyepieces, &quot;01332.&quot; I have seen mention of a few other Lemaire OG with the same number as mine. All were similar to mine, none MOP. I have seen mention of others with numbers. Some of the numbers were 2, 3, 4, or 5 digit. No one knew what they meant. Some speculated model numbers. Here are examples.</p><p><br /></p><p>Look at comments #38 &amp; #41 at the bottom of page:</p><p><a href="http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/48716-lemaire-paris-binoculars" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/48716-lemaire-paris-binoculars" rel="nofollow">http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/48716-lemaire-paris-binoculars</a></p><p><br /></p><p>These are stamped with the number &quot;38&quot;:</p><p><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/89919402/antique-lemaire-fi-paris-opera-glasses" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/89919402/antique-lemaire-fi-paris-opera-glasses" rel="nofollow">https://www.etsy.com/listing/89919402/antique-lemaire-fi-paris-opera-glasses</a></p><p><br /></p><p>This pair is stamped with &quot;K27161.&quot;</p><p><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/113760975/1800s-lemaire-fabt-paris-opera-glasses" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/113760975/1800s-lemaire-fabt-paris-opera-glasses" rel="nofollow">https://www.etsy.com/listing/113760975/1800s-lemaire-fabt-paris-opera-glasses</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Several pairs with the number &quot;63&quot;</p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/10-OFF-Antique-LEMAIRE-PARIS-63-w-Napoleon-bee-mark-mop-opera-glasses-/201245180373" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/10-OFF-Antique-LEMAIRE-PARIS-63-w-Napoleon-bee-mark-mop-opera-glasses-/201245180373" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/10-OFF-Antique-LEMAIRE-PARIS-63-w-Napoleon-bee-mark-mop-opera-glasses-/201245180373</a></p><p><br /></p><p>This pair has &quot;63&quot; on one side and &quot;29&quot; on the other:</p><p><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/91394959/1800s-lemaire-fi-paris-opera-glasses" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/91394959/1800s-lemaire-fi-paris-opera-glasses" rel="nofollow">https://www.etsy.com/listing/91394959/1800s-lemaire-fi-paris-opera-glasses</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Here is another pair stamped with &quot;63&quot;, but in very poor condition:</p><p><a href="http://www.rubylane.com/item/497632-1475/Vintage-Pair-Lemaire-Opera-Glasses-w?utm_source=thefind&amp;utm_medium=productfeed" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.rubylane.com/item/497632-1475/Vintage-Pair-Lemaire-Opera-Glasses-w?utm_source=thefind&amp;utm_medium=productfeed" rel="nofollow">http://www.rubylane.com/item/497632-1475/Vintage-Pair-Lemaire-Opera-Glasses-w?utm_source=thefind&amp;utm_medium=productfeed</a></p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
