This is an Estate sale fine. The man who lived at this estate was military and did surveying. This tripod has the characteristics of both. Military green hardware and brass extender legs.

The head has a 360 rotating capability. The legs extend out to 73 tall overall. Adjust from 73" down to 46.5". The wooden legs measure 32" and the brass legs are 28 1/4". In photo #4 you will see that one of the prong adjusters is broken but will still flip up and down to tighten.

Usual wear for the age. No maker's marks but there is numbers on the head for adjusting. Don't know a lot about these but feel free to ask questions and I will do my best to answer. You have a Type G military tripod, used primarily WWI and afterwards. Held several instruments, one of which was a periscope.

The bracket on top of yours held a low power telescope (that was pretty bad). I have all styles, Item is military because I believe you will see numbers going to 64 (meaning 6400 mils in a circle)- Civilian item would be 360 degrees, Tripod pretty common, but bracket not seen much.
