Bakelite binocs, pretty cool BARQs's case is the right type for the cxn bakelite binocs I want to get a period strap and eye protector for these, I believe the rubber eye protector is 'correct' for theseBeautiful set of cxn's. My dream binos. I agree, rubber ocular lens cover should be correct.

Scott, another nice set. The police stuff is interesting, too. Here is a set I picked up in the last couple months. It is a pretty normal set of Zeiss 6x30 Dienstglas. Someone defaced the 'Dienstglas' marking. But what makes them interesting is clear evidence of shrapnel splinters entering the body and bouncing around inside.

Dienstglas 6x30 of SWAROVSKI/Tirol/Austria, marked with 'cag' production code and serial number 165488. Its complete with bakelite cover. D d x VOIGTLAENDER & SOHN, A.G. BRAUNSCHWEIG GERMANY d k l JOSEF.

There is still some trapped inside. The binos function perfectly, though! I have to wonder if someone was wearing these on their chest when it happened. If the binos got these two splinters, I doubt he fared very well.

The entry of the shrapnel is consistent with them being on a strap on the chest.who knows. Sparks the imagination, for sure. Jeff Last edited by ditch68; at 05:29 PM. Reason: Spelling. Here is my Zeiss.

Found it in a little flea market in Italy. Motif batik format cdr windows download. Please note the name on the leather case. The same name is present on the G - K/43 magazine pouches ( ).On the right lens there is a reticle. Sorry for my english. -- LucaThat's my pouch on Clauses site that I sent him photos of!

I also have an Early drop tail Lufwaffe buckle with a 1935 date and 'LBA' and stamped 'Otto Koberstein Landsberg aW' on the leather tap. Just a note: the tab is also stamped with the name Neubausen Aufkl Gr121, this is Reconnaisance Group 12 that was based in Neuhausen the concentration/labor camp! And the VI rocket production facility after the Pedumunda works was bombed! Beautiful set of cxn's. My dream binos.

JeffThanks Jeff! Your set is equally impressive. We all wish items could talk.

Battle damage provides a voice otherwise silent that can move us steps closer to history. Quite a treat. That's my pouch on Clauses site that I sent him photos of!

Want to trade for the binocs??? Hey ditch, get that pouch from Ray and you can have the binocs LOL! Here is my latest set. Midwar (late 1943-early 1944) Voightlander 6x30. (ddx) These are right before the switch to the dunkelgelb ordinance tan finished binos for ddx. They also have the 'Kaltfest' cold weather lubricant, notated by the triangle.

I cleaned them a little, and lightened the markings. The bodies had some aluminum oxide, they cleaned up nicely.
