Don’t be fooled by low priced imported telescopes; they just can’t compare!! NOT ALL BRASS TELESCOPES ARE THE SAME Antiques or Modern Day ANTIQUE TELESCOPES ANTIQUE BRASS TELESCOPES: There are very few genuine antiques available and are priced from $10,000.00 to $75,000.00. Almost always they feature a simple lens erecting system. This system actually removes all of the enjoyment from modern day viewing simply because of low light transfer and narrow field of view. The small telescope (finder scope) that is attached to the main telescope tube is for celestial use only and it becomes useless on the ground. It looks nice but the angle that a person uses on the ground changes from a few yards to no more than a few miles and the “finder scope” can not make up the difference. Antique telescopes feature large, heavy tripod legs that are not only bulky but were manufactured from woods available at that time, primarily dark stained pine. “CAPE-COD” BRASS TELESCOPES HEIRLOOM QUALITY THE FINEST BRASS TELESCOPES IN THE WORLD AT A FRACTION OF THE COST OF AN ANTIQUE.
