IV 5X Prism Binoculars with 1942 dated Leather Case","description":"\u003cp\u003eOriginal Item: Only One Available. In good working order these are a pair of POWER X 5 binoculars, as often used by Officers while overseeing the soldiers under their command. These are in good condition, mostly functional and with majority of the black paint still intact. They have however been repainted, which has made many of the markings very hard to read. The original rubber eye cups are missing completely, and there is currently no way to adjust the focus on either side. There is a neck strap, but it looks to be post war and is broken off on one end. Still the optics are clear, and the image is quite good.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Left Barrel is marked on the base plate with the specifications:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ccenter\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eX5 BINO.
