Small binoculars, with small compass set between the larger lenses, nd. Belonged to Gen Sir Henry ap Rhys Pryce, Royal Indian Army Service Corps. The body is rigid and has leather covered sections between the lenses, the compass has an ‘O’ instead of ‘W’ for west and correspondingly has ‘NO’ and ‘SO’ for north- and south-west. This may be to do with a maker’s trademark. The magnification on the binoculars is not very strong and one of the larger lenses is damaged.
