The Astronomical Society of Harrisburg, founded in 1955, is selling its 3 remaining Antique Telescopes. The 4th, a Brashear, was sold years ago to Bart Fried, President of the Antique Telescope Society. We've worked with Bart to get these up for sale and develop reasonable starting bids. If you are interested in getting information on these scopes or bidding on them please visit: http://antiquescopes.cjb.net Bidding will close on November 14, 2002. The three scopes available a 1) 2.5" Tabletop Queen and Co. Refractor 2) 3" Alt-Az Mogey Refractor 3) 3.5" Equatorial Paul Meyrowitz/Mogey Refractor - Major Historical Value! Owned by US Senator Donald Cameron (Son of Lincoln's Secretary of War Simon Cameron) and passed on to his son, James Cameron, former owner of the now-state-owned mansion at Kings Gap State Park. A visit to the website just to see the various pictures of these beautiful instruments is well worth it!
