COMPLETE WITH SOLID MAHOGANY FIELD TRIPOD, PLUS ASSESSORIES.CIRCA 1910
FANTASTIC ANTIQUE BROADHURST CLARKSON BRASS 4 INCH REFRACTING TELESCOPE, THIS BEAUTIFUL INSTRUMENT IS CONSTRUCTED OF BRASS, THE MAIN BODY/TUBE HAS A BLACK COATING AND IS FITTED WITH A RACK AND PINION TYPE FOCUSING MECHANISM, FURTHER FOCUS ADJUSTMENT IS OBTAINED BY THE EYEPIECE TUBE EXTENSION, THE ACHROMATIC OBJECTIVE LENS IS HOUSED IN A REMOVABLE BRASS CELL. NOTEABLE WITH THE LENS HOUSING IS THAT IT HAS ADJUSTMENT FOR LENS PITCH WHICH IS DONE WITH THREE EQUALLY SPACED SCREWS. AT THE OTHER END OF THE SCOPE IS THE BRASS EYEPIECE EXTENSION HOUSING WITH THE ENGRAVED DESIGNATION: “BROADHURST CLARKSON & Co., 63 FARRINGDON Rd., LONDON, E.C. THE TELESCOPE IS CONFIGURED AS AN ASTRONOMICAL REFRACTOR BUT ON THE TUBE BODY THERE IS A MILITARY “CROWS FOOT” MARK SO POSSIBLY COMMISIONED BY THE ARMY? THE FIELD TRIPOD WOULD SUGGEST THAT! IT IS HUGE AND VERY SOLIDLY CONSTRUCTED WITH THREE LONG MAHOGONY LEGS, EACH WITH A BRASS POINTED END CAP. A VERY HEAVY STEEL FORK SITS ATOP THE TRIPOD ON A HEAVY BRASS SWIVEL YOKE, ALLOWING FOR SMOOTH 360 DEGREE HORIZONTAL MOVEMENT AND VERTICAL MOTION. THIS HUGE TELESCOPE IS BEAUTIFUL TO BEHOLD AND IS IN FULL WORKING ORDER. THE OBJECTIVE LENS IS BRIGHT AND CLEAR GIVING QUITE STUNNING VIEWS OF THE NIGHT SKY. I PERSONALLY OBSERVED SATURN AND HER RINGS DURING EARLY JULY AND IS ALSO FANTASTIC FOR VIEWING TERRESTRIAL OBJECTS GIVING SPECTACULAR CLOSE-UPS, ALBEIT UPSIDE DOWN! IT COMES COMPLETE WITH TWO ANTIQUE BRASS EYEPIECES AND A SOLAR FILTER. DIMENTIONS:MAIN TUBE BODY LENGTH = 44,1/4(112.4cm)TELESCOPE AT FULL EXTENSION = 58(147.4cm)OBJECTIVE LENS DIAMETER = 4(10.2cm)OBJECTIVE LENS BRASS CELL DIAMETER = 4,3/4(12.1cm)MAHOGANY TRIPOD LEGS LENGTH = 65,1/2 (166.4cm)I BELIEVE THE FOCAL LENGTH TO BE ABOUT 40(101.6cm)(THE OBJECTIVE LENS IS AN ACHROMATIC DOUBLET).ALL MEASUREMENTS ARE APPROXIMATE.
