German WWI Cased Binoculars (Fernglas 08) by Emil Busch, A-G Rathenow-These are a model 08, also known as the Fernglas 08. These are finished in gray, with bakelite lens cases. The optics on these need a good cleaning but seem to be just fine. The eye distance adjuster does move with some effort and could probably use some oil and a good tune up. These do have a narrow field of view. The glasses are marked and do have a serial number. The leather strap is present and in very good condition. The pressboard case is a brown and is nicely marked for Emil Busch A G Rathenow on the front strap. The case is gorgeous. It has all of its fittings and straps, and a piece of felt on the bottom of the case to protect the lenses. Under the flap is the original piece of paper with instructions. This set is in choice condition!
