1960s Swift 839 model refractor

[toranasaurus71]

Hi everyone
With my ultimate setup being soon complete (a short write up to come)
(Fs60 tak on restored and goto retrofitted carton rsm200 mount)
I am looking for a final addition to complete my scope collection(i tell my wife ;))
If anybody has an early 60s or similar swift refractor please contact me.
Would prefer an 839 model but would consider any.
A bit of a long shot but ill try anyway
Kind regards
Stephan

Stephan,

Sorry, I don't have one, but do have a link to the manual: http://geogdata.csun.edu/~voltaire/classics/swift/1961manual.pdf

These early Tak's are more plentiful in the US - might want to put an ad on Astromart and Cloudy Nights.
