This is the best premium offer of a Spy Glass that we have ever made.
This Glass has Rosewood body, and three draws. It is 15 inches in
length when drawn out, 6 inches when closed. The object-glass is one
inch in diameter. The power is 13 times.
How far can I see with this Spy Glass? The distance at which an
observer can see objects depends upon two considerations: First, the
power of the instrument; and second, the condition of the atmosphere.
All that is needful is to multiply the distance at which the unassisted
eye can see objects clearly, by the given power of the glass. For
instance, the atmosphere being clear and steady, this Spy Glass will
enable a person to make out an object one mile distant with the same
distinctness that he can see it at a distance of 130 yards with the
unassisted eye. It is an excellent instrument. Price $2.50. Postage and
packing 12 cents extra.
