6x30 KP Goerz Bratislava binocs info

[ksmith3620]

Hello all, I picked up a pair of binocs from an antique store today and know they are roughly from the WW2 to early postwar period, but am having problems finding enough info to correctly date and place these.

They came in a mottled brown Bakelite case with the makers marks in the bottom:
looks like hRs then 9951 in an oval and some curved line with numbers 32 and z2 visible. One of the posts in the forum said that hRs may be Giese Erich factory in Berlin manufacture

The binocs themselves have the following:
Left side:Inside a triangle of sorts
KP
Goerz
Bratislava

Right side: just stamped in
6x30
Polni Kukatko
vz 9/13
Some kind of a "G" or "C" with a little v on top of it and 52108

From what I can find so far, this may be either a set that was used by annexed forces during the war, or it could be a set from post war '46 russian assembled...
It's the bakelite case that gets me...

Any information anyone can share would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

6x30 KP Goerz

Hi ksmith 3620,
a similar pair on a recent offering from Ebay?

Can you post a picture of your binoculars?
Your binoculars are certainly worthy of researching their European history.I would note that K P Goerz ,Bratislava ,Slovakia was a different company to Optische Anstalt C P Goerz GmbH ,Wien ,Austria ( "bpd" during WW2).
Bratislava ,Slovakia during WW2 was a puppet Fascist State . Quite a bit of K P Goerz ,Bratislava optical equipment was acquired by Finland during the WW2 period.
