Killer yard sale- I bought a telescope...

[bholdr]

...which i have no real idea how to use, or even IF i'll use it... Though I was into astronomy as a kid (still have my old star charts, books, etc). and I've have recently been looking for cool stuff to fill up the apartment which i will be movng into next month (it's quite a bit bigger than the one i'm in now). I suspect I'll end up using it about once a month and it'll gather dust the rest of the year sitting in the corner looking neat. I did a couple searches, it retails for $399-$499, I got it for $75- perfect condition, except it's missing one micro-adjust cable (gonna run about $40 if i want it). It's a Meade model 395 (the pic makes it look smaller than it is- it's a big motherfuker- about 4 feet long, four inches in diameter, and stands at eye level with the tripod extended:



I've also been looking for some cool art for my new place, and have recently been fascinated by old maps and prints. I was looking at this one a few weeks ago:


It's an original 1860 map/diagram of the solar system 21x25 inches, and is selling for $180 (i've shopped around, and this is a fair price). I think this would look really cool framed and mounted behind the telescope in the sunroom of my soon-to-be apartment. You all like this kind of decor/art?

thoughts?
