ONE OF A KIND. Ultra rare military artillery periscope with accessories and original wooden box. 10 X 40 lenses. This is the rarest and tallest field periscope ever made by Carl Zeiss. Only periscope (excluding tripod and goniometer) has a height of 1.15 meters and it can be extended to an height of 1.85 meters. This instrument can reach more than 3.5 meters when used in the tripod. There are usual Carl Zeiss models as manual monocular periscopes (to be used with no tripods), the trench binoculars (called donkey hears) or the binocular periscope made during the cold war and used in the Berlin wall. But this one is really impossible to find and, with to doubt, the rarest artillery periscope made by Carl Zeiss. Really impossible to find and may be exclusively made for the Argentinan army (this is the second one i see, and both made for the Argentinian army). Only periscope, excluding tripod and goniometer, weight more or less 30 lbs. Wooden case with metal locks is extremely solid and heavy and has two metal handles to be carried for two persons. Accessories on case are all originals and includes three stakes to keep this tall periscope firm, stable and centered thank to a bronze rotating ring with three holes to attach to each stake with a rope. It includes a foot with column to use it at ground level, an angular stick with screw to use it in a tree and an orange filter (signed by Carl Zeiss and the Argentinian army). If you want to place this instrument correctly, you need a huge area of more or less 4 x 4 meters to use stakes with a metal rope (i only used tripod on pictures, but if you use stakes it will look even more spectacular). Each steel stake has a hole to introduce a rope and a screw to lock it. Which makes it easy to give the rope just the right tension. This instrument has an impressive and original military tripod and a goniometer (both uncased) in perfect working order signed by the Argentinian army (both parts made by Carl Zeiss, but not signed by Zeiss). This amazing periscope has two handles to move it horizontally, and you can move it vertically turning same handles (as a motorcycle). It has two reels in handles with a strap to move mirror on top vertically (all working). So it is incredibly practical and simple. It has been made during 1920 s´ (Nedinsco era) and it has the serial number 1003. Periscope has been oiled and lenses, prism and mirror are in perfect condition so this instrument is completely operative. Vision is clear with small points of dust. It has been cleaned but not restored. It preserves its original antique condition and the original black paint on tube is in amazing condition considering its age. Of course it is a very old instrument so it shows signals of use, but overall condition is amazing considering its age. All is completely functional (even circular level is working). Tripod with extended legs and goniometer have an height of 1.70 meters so complete instrument can reach more than 3.5 meters. Tube diameter is 65 millimeters. All defects not mentioned but visible in the pictures will be considered as described. If you have any question, do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you for your visit.

Total Length: 39.76 in / 101 cm. I think I left nothing in the description but if I forgot something, I’ll be glad to answer any questions. We are professional antique dealers. Enjoy my articles and I hope we keep in touch. Thanks for trusting me and enjoy! Best wishes from Spain. Simply shop away and then request the total from us. IMPORTANT – SEE ALL THE PICTURES. This is an antique or vintage item , not a new item, and it’s not perfect as a new one. It may have minor scratches or hits not mentioned in this description but than can be seen in the many photos published with it. Scroll down the description to see all the photos. Photos are part of the description, because a picture is worth a thousand words. Please, study the pictures as part of the description and if you have any doubt ask me. Also be aware that when I say that an antique item is in perfect working conditions, doesn’t mean that it works as new. A machine with 100 years is not prepared to be working everyday during hours, except my antique clocks. Many things can happen inside an antique mechanism and today’s perfectly working spring, could be the future’s failure as far away as in 10 years or as near as the next month. It’s impossible to know exactly when. If necessary, we restore and/or repair and finally clean and/or adjust, all our antique machines, and if it’s there’s a defect or malfunctions, it’s clearly indicated in the description, video or pictures, but these machines are still antiques. For example, an antique car, a Ford T from 1910, may be in perfect working conditions, but this doesn’t mean that it works as new or that you can use this antique car as an everyday car to go to your job. I want to leave this clear as part of the description. Antiques, even in perfect working conditions, can’t be guaranteed as a new or second hand item. Not only the antique itself has 100 years old or more, but also each spring, screw, wheel and gear of its mechanism has also 100 years or more. Of course, if something happens we can help to solve the problem, even repairing it, we know experts in many areas, but understand that even a perfectly working antique is still an antique. Our work is not complete until you receive your item safely in your home. We certify that our products are 100% originals. We certify that the description and dating of the article that we give is 100% accurate. This article will be perfectly packed so that it arrives in excellent condition. We pay full attention that you receive your article perfectly. We treat the article as if it were going to be sent to ourselves. WE GUARANTEE YOUR ACQUISITION. Many collectors have became millionairs. If you are starting a collection, follow these important tips. If you want to invest in antiques, always choose original pieces and avoid reproductions. A reproduction loses half of its value in the same minute that you are purchasing it, while an original antique gains value each passing day. This is an original antique and its value will continue growing tomorrow. Read and learn about for area of interest: swords, clocks, phonographs, antique photos, old silver, technical antiques, typewriters… Invest in books as much as in your collection and learn as much as you can. If you keep your collecction catalogued, you will increase its value. Keep yourself informed about the market prices in your area of interest. Collect antiques, not junk. It is always better a small collection with excellent pieces than a huge collection of junk, rusty irons and broken machines. There is not a goal to reach, so take the pleasure in in the process of your treasure hunting. A collection should be something to enjoy, and there is many interesting pieces out there and very few time to enjoy them, so be selective with your choices. If you follow these simple steps you will be in the correct direction to develop an excellent collection, whatever is your area of interest and, for me the most important of all, enjoying the process. WHO WE ARE & ABOUT ME. Saragossa is a Spanish medium size city of 700.000 people, located just in the middle of the way between Madrid and Barcelona, 300 kms from each one, and also equidistant 300 kms. To other cities as Bilbao and Valencia. Its an antique city founded by the Romans, by the Emperor Caesar Augustus more than 2000 years ago, capital of the powerful antique Kingdom of Aragon, 900 years ago and during the Medieval times, and first defeat of Napoleons troops in Europe during the Napoleonic Wars in the early 19th Century, among other History.. Here I was born, here I live, and here I have my small antiques shop. We are proffesional antique dealers. I started in this world as a collector. My father introduced me into the world of antique collectibles and I started my own antique search at flea markets for my own small antiques collections since I was very young. I’ve been a professional antique dealer since the year 2003, when I decided to join my passion with my way of living. And more than 20 years as a collector, and I still have a lot to learn and only a little to teach. We are a registered legal antique bussiness, here in Spain. I have a small shop open to the public in Saragossa and we are open from 9:00 to 19:00 hours, Madrid time. You are welcome to visit me whenever you wish. And finally, as I mentioned before, I have my own web shop, for 5 years now, in Spanish language although it can be translated to almost any language using the Google Translator button, in the upper part of the web page. The translation is not perfect but its good in an 80%, totally understandable and you can always ask me. Mainly, I started specialized in Antique machines as gramophones, music boxes, clocks, watches but today, I also work with other first class collector items as cameras, militaria, antique scientific instruments To be exact, nowadays, I work with any first class antique that I could find at a correct price and that we could transport worldwide. We have a wide experience in packing and sending safely World Wide, from China and Singapore, to Dallas, San Francisco, New York or London, Canada, and of course almost all European Countries, many American ones including Mexico, Argentina and Colombia, and not forgetting Australia, South Africa, Israel and some in the Middle East as Catar and Emirates. We have sent successfully, from fragile items as Chinese Porcelain, to heavy items as Slot Coin Machines, not together into the same box, of course! . We can send almost everything with security, no matter how big or heavy it is, if the client wants to pay the price, because some heavy or big items or delicate items into big boxes are specially expensive to send, not perhaps within Europe, but sometimes to America or Asia and some require custom made packing, as custom made wooden boxes or special foam for transport protection. We work with Selected pieces. All my items are first class collectors items, in excellent conditions , conservation state or/and working conditions. If talking about antique machines, most of them are in perfect working conditions, perfect conservation state or perfectly restored. The few that are not, because it was not possible to repair it, it’s clearly indicated. I like to work with the best pieces that I can find. I prefer to work only with selected pieces. Selected’ doesnt mean’unaffordable’. My pieces have very correct prices, depending on the rarity and the conservation state of the piece itself. Every piece has a price rank, from junk state to museum state, that I consider is the highest one. Selected means that I prefer to work with Museum State pieces, or near, and First Class collectors items, or near rather than other kind of low quality pieces. We guarantee the description and datation of all our pieces. I always give guarantee my descriptions, not only in general antiques, but even in the working condition of an antique machine. Of course, to be completely sincere, its mainly impossible to give a full guarantee in the working condition of an antique working machine with over or more than 100 years. Many things can happen inside an antique mechanism and todays perfectly working spring, could be the futures failure as far away as in ten years or as near as the next month. If necessary, we restore and/or repair and finally clean and/or adjust, all our antique machines, and if its there’s a defect or malfunctions, its clearly indicated in the description, video or pictures. We try to have all our pieces in perfect working conditions, but if a disaster occurs and the item gets out of order or damaged, for any reason, we can help to solve the problem or to help to repair it or to restore it. We work with first class professionals that can restore from antique medieval paintings to 13th Century silver, other metals as iron, copper and bronze, to any kind of wood. Also, we can repair antique machines as gramophones, antique clocks, typewriters and antique mechanical calculators. Our Priority is your satisfaction. And the most important of all, we always take great care of the customer service. Clients experience with antiques should be always pleasant and happy, or, if this is not completely possible, at least satisfactory and full of joy. Our workonly ends, not when we sell the piece, but when our client have the piece in his hands, safely and in good conditions. I speak English fluently, some French, and, of course, Spanish.

The culmination of multipurpose forestry axe. Finnish people have used and relied on axes thousands of years and this is culmination of that use and continuous development, honed to perfection. Axe was tool to choose to when puukko was not tool enough. It was used from cutting down trees in forest to building log houses and anything in between. Finnish woodworkers had reputation with making long lasting quality log houses and they needed good tools (axes) for that. Good example, one of United States oldest wood building still standing, was made by Finns, C. This is very rarely seen variant of this axe model, Finnish army (SA-stamp) “Pioneerikirves”, pioneers/engineers axe, note that original hole in middle. Good condition blade, need sharpening of course. Finnish axe heads looks often very beaten up when used because of mushroomed poll, but that is partly designed feature. Poll of these is not meant for hitting anything other than wood wedges or wooden dowels and stakes (soft targets), but as designers knew, these axes were going to be misused as (sledge)hammers and as wedges anyway, they made that poll very very soft for protecting eye from crushing and misshaping and also for giving direct visual feedback to user. Different parts of axe head are heat treated differently and actual blade part is laminated different material, they really knew what they were doing when making these! All Finnish axe makers had exactly similar models, it is not always possible to distinguish Billnäs, Kellokoski or Strömfors from each other when stamp is not visible, but here Billnäs stamp is clearly visible. Original condition, not painted, just oiled. No sharpening done by me, but this still is sharp enough to cut yourself if you are not careful. Included are directions for making proper handle for Finnish axe, which differs from any other style of axes. Usually most people have no clue how to put handle to finnish model axe head and end result is axe that looks stupid and does not work as intended. Sample of what can be done with axe like this. Study images carefully as they are most important part of description, ask more if needed. Ask if anything uncertain. Check out my other items too!
