<p>[QUOTE="springfld.arsenal, post: 313593, member: 54"]They look decorative to me, have never seen real ones with that shape tube. No patina to speak of. Do they really magnify a distant object and are they collimated? The machining on eyepieces is different from any old ones I’ve seen. I’d bet money these are being cranked out in Taiwan for the souvenir/deco/pier One type market. Are the objective lenses flat (fake) or convex (maybe real.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
