Pardon this off topic post.

This past weekend someone broke into the Optical Sciences Lab at the University of Arizona. Some rare 18th & 19th century monoculars were stolen.

I'm posting this here to alert the community and ask if anyone sees or hears of them being offered for sale , please contact the proper authorities.

Thanks

Images of the stolen items and more details can be found here:
