This is my first post here, so hello everyone!
I have become increasingly interested in vintage porro binoculars. My introduction came when I picked up binoculars manufactured by Hans Hensoldt and by Bausch and Lomb.
Today, I picked up an addition to my small collection by Bushnell. They seem in nearly unused condition and so far, I am impressed by their clarity and brightness. Without direct comparison (I have not had a chance yet), I would say they are nearly (if not entirely) equal to the others in my collection in build and image quality. Only the case seems of lesser quality--even though it is in excellent condition.
There is a BOL Diamond stamp as well as J-B138 and J-E4 on the hinge.
I will try to attach some photos.
