This 6x9.3 binoculars represents a unique historical artifact, a remnant of an era of Japanese industry, now largely forgotten. Please note, this item is very old and in less than ideal condition. It would be an intriguing addition to any collection of WWII memorabilia or optical instruments. Ltd, a largely unknown subsidiary of Nikon, was established upon the directive of the Japanese Army in 1937.

This company was founded in Manchuria with significant contributions from Japanese Optics (Nikon). After facing multiple challenges, the operations finally started in 1940, mainly focusing on manufacturing 6x binoculars and repairing optical instruments for the Kwantung Army. The company had to be relocated due to air raids by the U. Increased absences due to worsening war conditions, along with the encroachment of the Soviet Army, led to the company's inevitable downfall. The operation ended in August 1945, and all assets were seized by the Soviet Army, bringing a close to the brief seven-year existence of Manchuria Optics.

Embrace this unique piece of history with this binoculars - a tangible testimony to a brief, fascinating chapter in the annals of optics manufacturing.
