I don't know if this is a classic but it sure is a rare one, all my endeavours to find another one with the Berry&Mackay name have come to zilch....

Berry & Mackay (Aberdeen) 3.25" F15 brass refractor c1890.

The only one I have found that looks just like it is the Sir John Monash Refractor at Monash University and that one is made by Watson & Sons.

My enquiries indicate that B & M didn't actually make the scope but marketed it with their name on the OTA focuser plate.
