    What is the view like up a barrel with this device? Any magnification? Focus adjustment? Odd that it is described as a "mirror" when it is plainly a periscope.

    Wray Optical Works Ltd., est. 1850, Ashgrove Road, Bromley Hill, Kent. (SIMA Handbook, 1952.)

    Despite Wray holding contracts for Head Up Display optics, Kershaws never made any and ultimately lost the business which was quite short-sighted of the Rank Organisation.
    Wonder who got that job then, and how!?

    “There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”

    Edward Bernays, 1928

    Much changes, much remains the same.
