Description

Vintage Wollensak 15x40 Vari-Power Telescope 8.5” Closed 26.5” Fully Open.
This here is a vintage Wollensak 15x40 variant power telescope that is 8.5 inches when it’s fully closed and 26.5 inches when fully open. Made in Rochester U.S.A., this beauty of a telescope can make the hardest of images appear close up and vividly clear even with the amount of years it’s got on it. It’s used, but it’s in very very good condition with minimal markings on the shiny metal on the outside, and a very small amount of dust on the inside of the front most lens. I would clean the dust myself but I’m not an expert with taking care of these things. The diameter of this telescope is 1.75”. Use this beauty for whale or bird watching, getting a better visual on any distant object, or simply for display. The telescope shafts slide out relatively easily, but not too easy where you can’t carry it vertically while walking, basically they don’t slide out on their own.
