Air Ministry Binoculars for Night Use

This design is referred to as 'Husan Pilot' Pattern and are for low light use, come complete with issue leather case. 

These were used for various purposes in WWII including use by RAF aircrew (including Pathfinder Squadrons)and also were also issued to Airborne Glider pilots, the Parachute Regiment and Special Forces including those involved in D-Day 'Operation Market Garden. 

These are the rather uncommon Civilian version, i.e. NOT ministry engraved.

The engraving states;

H.H. & Son Ltd

Made In Great Britain

Pilot No.160899

They have scalloped eyepieces (one repaired) but are otherwise identical to, and contemporaneous with, the 6E-338 type.

 There is normal age related wear, but no untoward damage. 

Optics are good for use, very minor degradation but nothing which would need attention.

Brass body is all good and they are fully functional.

No case, but there is a nice original canvas strap.
