I purchased the instrument 15 years ago in the UK.The scope is engraved in 2 places " T Cooke York " and is a one of a kind, fully operating work of art.It stands over 5'high and is 64" long without extension.Pristine condition. Stand is mahogany.
Comparable unit for sale in Australia offered at $44,000.
Additional pics available showing details.
I am not very knowledgable about the market or the science. I simply fell in love with the scope as a unique collectable.It has been on display at the summer house for 10 yrs. That house is sold and I do not want to put such a magnificant piece of history in storage.Front lens is approx 5" diameter including brass tubing.
