takahashi ts reflector

Takahashi TS reflector serie

The TS reflector serie are the first serie of newtonian telescopes produced by Takahashi.

TS 100 (1969 and 1972)

We can found 2 productions runs of these telescopes. The first one is 1969 which name is TS100 and the second run in 1972 which name is TS1001. It seems that both telescopes are the same.
