I have a Firstoscope 114 4.5" Newtonian Telescope from Celestron that needs a good home. It was a handmedown from a friend who moved out of town, which I have not ever used. My understanding is that it needs a replacement lens, but otherwise I have all the parts, including instruction manual. It is dusty, but would likely be a good project for middle school or high school age kid to get it up and working. And did I mention that it is free?

Here is the link to the manufacturer's page for the telescope:

This telescope has been discontinued, but the manufacturer is still in operation so any parts would be readily available.

Contact me at enright.park@yahoo.com. Pick up from my front porch in East Liberty once we have touched base.

Thank you. Sallyann
