Sale pending, but here are the photos anyway, and some more info:

* Scope is 8 months old.
* I just noticed that the mirror has quite a bit of dust and crud on it as you can see pretty well from the photo. I think most of the black bits-o-crud are flaking off from the felt GSO use to make the OTA cover a snug fit. - and probably also fluff from my cotton gloves I wear on cold nights - I have never cleaned the mirror.
* Crayford in photo not included, but I will include either a rack and pinion or a crayford focuser (depending on what is on my new scope coming within the next day or so )
* Fan is the same size and fitted same way as those supplied with the GSO "Deluxe" Dobs. (Not quite the baffled monster fan I used to have on it but much better than no fan.) It does need to be hooked up to a battery. 12V for full power, or 9V for quieter operation.
