My new vintage Karl Kaps

This solid German made scope I got for just 40$. Three sets of oculars and 4 original Karl Kaps lenses and in a nice wooden box with a key.
I am unsure of the age, but perhaps from 50ties.
Karl Kaps is from the same town as where Leitz are made, and it looks very much the same.
Quality all over. Need to find out how to change distance between eyes though.

I believe the optics are made by Seibert.

It could be Seibert made lenses, although named Karl Kaps as seen in new picture.

I have added all pictures via attachments, so hope everyone can see them now :D
