Vintage WWII Stereoscopic Tester M1A1 Military Field Item Most Components RARE
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:31151954 |
This is a classic piece of WWII memorabilia! Nicely intact with many of the parts most likely to be lost over the years such the vision cards and their carrying boxes. Very cool.
This is an M1A1 Stereoscopic Tester.
It was likely used as a vision tester for depth perception and field of vision. My online research tells me there is a Technical Manual, TM 9-2653, that you can order pretty inexpensively on the web. This is an ordnance manual confirmin...g its use for bombing vision testing.
This item has substantial rust on the case and is clearly a vintage item with wear and tear. The light holder is bent, but I didn't bend it back and I don't want to weaken the metal. I also think there was a light with the original set which is not present. But per the photos, many of the testing cards are in their original box. Please see photos closely as I don't want you to get something you won't enjoy.
This item weighs just over 40 lbs, so the best way to ship it will be USPS Parcel Select using the actual cost based on your location (luckily eBay calculates this for us!). International shipping as well using Priority International.
