How to Repair Original Boxes for Binoculars. Wie zu Reparieren Originalkartons für Ferngläser. Comment Réparer les Boîtes Originales pour Jumelles. Как восстановить оригинальные коробки бинокль. Hur man reparerar Original Lådor för Kikare. Cómo Reparar Cajas Originales para Prismáticos.

When one encounters the original pasteboard boxes for miniature binoculars, they are sometimes split at the corners. It is possible to repair them in a way that is inconspicuous (unlike using adhesive tape).

The tools I use include bookbinders white glue, spring clamps, metal angles, and a split frozen pop stick

Text Box: Step 1

Use the spring clamps and metal angles to align the edges of the corners, with the metal angle on the outside.

Text Box: Step 2

Use the pop stick to run a ribbon of glue along the corner on the inside. Once done, lay the box so the ribbon of glue is horizontal, so it does not run and pool.

Text Box: Step 3

Allow to dry. Then apply another later. I usually apply several layers

Text Box: Step 4

Do the same on the outside. The bookbinders glue goes on white but dries clear.

Text Box: Step 5

If you wish, you can form a paper reinforcement and glue it along the inside corners.

Text Box: Step 6

Repaired box.

RALEIGH 6x25 CF BINOCULARS SET

          Collection of Mark Ohno

These binoculars were sold by Siltons of 627 South Hill St, Los Angeles California, USA on July 7, 1961 for $31.15. (around $244 in 2015 dollars).Siltons was a store that sold diamonds, watches, jewelry, cameras, stereos, televisions, and obviously binoculars. It is actually surprisingly  uncommon to find original sales slips with binoculars: have only encountered 3 or 4, or with around 1/2 percent of acquisitions.
