I have for sale a 1961 Questar. One of the first to use a Quartz mirror. The serial # is 1-1101. (The first few quartz mirrored Questars did not have an indication in the serial # that they were quartz. But Questar confirmed that this scope does indeed have a Quartz mirror). Questar now offers a Quartz-mirror option again with it's new scopes, but it costs and addional $1000 or so. Comes with the standard accessories, including the 40-80x and 80-160x eyepieces, plus I have included a Questar lenscap, which did not come with the scopes until later. I am also including a Questar instruction book (but may be a little later printing) and a 1969 Questar redbook. Also included is the vinyl cover that goes over the leather case. I do not have the key to the locks on the case, but they are unlocked. Also, the power cord has had the plug replaced, and it works fine. Asking $1950, which includes shipping in the CONUS. OK to pay with paypal for no additional charge.

Not the best picture possible, but it at least hints at the detail this scope can show.

Shipping included CONUS. Will ship to US only. Discount given if you come to pick it up. Thanks for looking.
