Post a photo of a "historic" telescope. It can be your own, someone's homemade telescope, a university observatory telescope, a "historic" museum telescope or even commercial telescope...etc. Some included info about why it is considered to be "historic" would be helpful.
For starters...I've attached a couple of website links about a couple of "historic" homemade telescopes that should get things going. Once you read them, you'll know right away why they're considered "historic" telescopes....
