I recently purchased a set of 5 RKE eyepieces. They came tissue wrapped with no caps et al. Are there plastic cases or the like to keep these in ?

There actually is a RKE ocular case that Edmund came out with in the '80s. They were blue with gray foam inside or yellowish white with blue foam inside. It would hold all the original line RKEs along with the 2.5x Barlow.

Pretty rare to find though and now days, collectible.
