HI:
I saw this interesting red reflector on the LA Craigslist. The pier mount suggests that it is 60's-70's vintage and the red suggests Tasco. Aperture looks to be small, maybe 3 inch.
Any ideas what it is??

It's a fork mounted Alt-Az on a pier. The OTA reminds me of a Tasco 3" reflector I am selling on AM right now. But I cannot post a link to it here.

Secretly we know Clint is dying to trade his 4" Unitron for it! He's just downplaying it so he can swoop in for the "kill"!
