Hello,
Just back in from the car boot sale, where I picked up a pair of British 1944 dated prismatic binoculars in their case.
The view through them is crystal clear,not bad for 63 years old!
Markings on the left side are, O.S. 656 M.A.
REGD No 87697
BINO.PRISM No5
MK VA
X7
Markings on the right are, INL
1944, then a red W or M
The case top is marked, B.H. & G. LTD
1944
OS/997
BINOCULAR PRISMATIC No 5
CASE MK 1
Does anyone out there know anything about binoculars and can help with identifying the maker and give me some info on who used them please?
Also an idea on value would be appreciated please,to see if I actually got a bargain!
Kind regards,
Andy
