ALBA Augsburg 8x25 Binoculars Vet Bring Back paper The waist measurement is atPre war private purchase binoculars with their original leather case. Made by ALBA in Augsburg Germany. They are in decent to good condition with fairly clean optics. Germans loved their binoculars and besides issuing large numbers of them many soldiers and officers purchased their own. The name Paul Chenot is etched into the bottom of the binoculars which I believe is the American GI's name who brought these back.
