    Aquitaine Is What It IS! But NEVER BORED!

    Exactly like mine!!!!! And it's on Worthpoint, wouldn'tcha know:rolleyes::jawdrop: So, @Kronos, at some point I'd very much like to ask you the favor of checking for me?????? I feel like we owe you a membership to Worthpoint so many of us impose on you, and it IS SO APPRECIATED!!!! It's an antique double Gutta Percha (I think) Loupe, 1 7/8" x 1 1/2", with a design plus LOGO I think in the middle.....images below, with the center color enhanced to HOPE maybe someone might have seen it before....ANY help with it appreciated MUCHLY!!!! (oops, just noticed I cut off the top of one loupe in top image:oops:)

    To clarify what I see in the pink, and I DON'T know what's the correct order, from left to right.....a small 0, HUGE B, inside the B is a Large 'L' and Cap 'C' then another 0 outside the B.... the best I can explain......THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

    Bausch & Lomb Optical Company sounds about right.

    I don't have worthpoint but I've just started exploring terapeak in case I decide to sell again.

    There is one there that I think is like yours. It sold for $19.99 plus shipping in 2021 if it helps.

    Gee. I sold one on Ebay years ago that went for about $20 and then I kicked myself for getting rid of it! I finally found another one last year.
