Note:
Inner lenses and prisms have been cleaned where accessible. The binoculars give clear images for their age.
There can be a slight stain on the inside of the prism lens facing downwards but this does not seem to affect the performance of the binoculars in any way. Some stitches on the leather case lid have become loose or worn out. These general wear and tear are appropriate with age and use.
Please see photos for further details.
