4.25-inch minor axis diagonal mirror mounted in cell. Bought in
1980, part of a Dobsonian mirror kit from Coulter. Coating
mostly good. Dark patches are missing coating. Optical
quality unknown, but I used this for many years in a
17.5-inch Dobsonian telescope. (Now using a smaller diagonal)
This one is probably good for something larger than 17.5-inch f/4.5,
or perhaps for a folded refractor or small coelostat. $200
Can Would consider trade for equatorial platform. Approximately
3 pounds shipping weight. Shipping included in purchase price
for regular mail within North America only.

I have an extra meade 25 mm super plossl for sale. I have both
types, the older "long style" and the newer
japanese model which is shorter. Both are in excellent
condition, although the newer japanese has less barrel markings
because it is afterall newer. Both are 1.25" barrel size (of
course...). I am asking $80 dollars plus shipping including a screw cap
for the eyepiece. You can have your choice of which one you want.

I've never touched the optics at all.....suffice
to say there are a very few "tiny" specs of dust or eyelash oil or?.
Only visible under some lighting angles. Not worthy of touching the
glass in my estimation. There is also a number of tiny polished
dots along the edge of the captive screw ring from the EP retainer screw.
Other than the aforementioned specs and dots, it is cosmetically and optically
near perfect. Sorry, I've mis-placed the papers and one end cap (I've
substituted an alternate), but I do have the original box. Asking $460?
............Thanks for looking.
