WW1 British No.25 Trench Periscope & Case 1916
A classic WW1 trench periscope this being the No.25 model coming complete with its quality brown leather carrying case.
Periscope has good clear optics with graticuling still visible upon focussing. The well acknowledged maker nomenclature of R&J Beck is visible to scope with the date 1916. The War Department Broad arrow mark is visible to scope & also to its original screw on wood handle.
Leather case inner is lined in high quality purple velvet padding with all buckle straps in remarkably good condition. There is also a belt loop to rear as well as the housing compartment for the wood handle when not in use.
The lid to the case has become detached over time with carrying straps damaged in places ( Please see images ) . Still a fine addition to any WW1 trench equipment collection.
