Cose up of finder but light not good

Looks like standard Astro Oprical Co., exactly like the one that was on my 1961 Monolux:

I always liked how you mod it to be a 60/1000mm and added the VB extension. waytogo.gif

Although I have a longer tube for a 1000mm objective, I'm tempted to do the same mod to another scope hmm.gif

Mark here is a couple of shots of my "little brown box". There are a few items like stat diagonals etc. which are on the scope itself. Now I can be sure that this box came with the 20TE and wasn't added by someone at a later date. wink.gif  Mike         IMG_5765.JPG IMG_5767.JPG
