my FIL had a ton of binoculars.  I didn't take pics of them all, but thought I would share some with you, since we were on the subject not too long ago!

For starters

This is a fun one  http://www.pimall.com/nais/pivintage/smoptics.html

Any markings at all on them?  (Brass ones are usually a little higher in value if in good shape!)

Great information fyi - better than I could put it and lots less typing for me!  :)    http://hubpages.com/hub/Antique_Binoculars

ALSO....it is hard to determine the type you have without dimensions/strengths, etc.  You could have opera, field, maritime...etc....
