Antique Brass Falcon 22x Telescope
This is a beautifully crafted brass telescope, identified as a Newbold and Bulford Ltd Falcon 22x model. The telescope features a three-draw construction, allowing for adjustable magnification and focus. Its brass body exhibits a rich patina, indicative of age and careful handling, and suggests a nautical or surveying origin. The Falcon 22x designation indicates a magnification of 22x, making it suitable for detailed observation.
Condition and Collectibility
The telescope presents with signs consistent with age and use, including minor surface wear and patina. While the optics are present, the telescope is offered ‘as is’ with no guarantee of functionality. This piece would be a desirable addition to a collection of antique scientific instruments, nautical equipment, or brass collectibles, appealing to enthusiasts and collectors alike.
