Features a vintage Fennel Kassel theodolite surveying instrument (serial number No 72460) crafted in Germany, dating to approximately the 1950s or early 1960s. The instrument is accompanied by its protective green metal dome housing shell and a heavy-duty genuine leather outer carry case lined with aged yellow fabric. The metal dome cover prominently displays a brass dealer badge from "A. Hausler, Scientific Instrument Maker, Johannesburg," documenting its local South African trade history. The lot also includes a small brass adjustment key alongside two miniature canvas storage bags. Showing character consistent with historical field use, the piece exhibits distinct vintage flaws, including some paint chipping, scratches and scuffs along with wear on the leather exterior and carry straps.
