These were made by PZO and were issued to schools across the Soviet countries https://www.cloudynights.com/topic/653804-eyepieces-for-the-pzo-t50x70-maksutov-telescope/

They still turn up occasionally on sites across Europe or the UK.

Im not so sure - the backend looks rather different to the Polish built ones - Based on Dave's video, that is probably for the better as it looks to be a little finicky. :)
