3.5 inch Questar Maksutov Cassegrain

Mrs. Camilla Lee of Narragansett donated her step father Ryder Henry's 50+ year old Questar Maksutov Cassegrain telescope. The telescope has been repeatedly sent to the factory in New Hope Pennsylvania for cleaning and improvements. This 50 year old telescope has many of the features of a much newer instrument. The optics of early Questar telescopes were unmatched in their day and still compare very positively with the best modern optics.
