It's Clive's Binosaur! These are good, Mark Sutching did the mirrors. What a deal.

Gee, the Binosaur up for sale, and I never got a look through it. :( It's a class instrument, go for it if you have the redies.

Even one of those primaries alone would be at least $5000 new.

They might look impressive, but I bet you'd have trouble getting them into the members' stand at the races.

Nice write up, Mark. I can't image why the owner is parting with it.

Certainly not because he wants to part with them :whistle:

It's a pity about the minor damage to the primaries. Even if it makes no
visual difference, it does bring the perceived value down somewhat.

Shame it's such a long drive to Perth for pick-up......

Cheers,
Jason.
