Posted By Richard Drake

Gian,

I have a similar scope. It's the Sears Discoverer 76mm/f16 Model 46333. Check out this link for some photos and additional info:

Your longest owned scope?

Posted By Richard Drake

I was given a 76mm/f16 Sears Discoverer in 1980. It was my first and only scope until I recently acquired an Intes Micro MN56. It's in great condition and gives really nice lunar, solar, and planetary views. I have everything including the wood case, mount, owners manual and all accessories. My son will inherit it when he gets a little older.
