Description :

Well‑kept vintage theodolite set formerly used by a Washington State department, offered with its original hard case and field accessories. The instrument features an olive‑green body with dual sighting scopes, adjustment knobs, and leveling mechanisms. Included is the matching red‑and‑white survey tripod, plumb bob, yellow tool pouch, and assorted small tools.

The hard case retains its institutional labeling and asset tag (“Washington State No. 669366”), along with a “Delicate Instrument” notice from Close Scientific Instrument Co. All components show expected wear from field use but remain in solid, serviceable condition for display, restoration, or practical surveying applications.

A strong example for collectors of scientific instruments, surveying equipment, or mid‑century industrial design.

Includes: • Theodolite instrument • Survey tripod • Hard carrying case with original labels • Plumb bob • Yellow tool pouch with tools
