What a great find. Are the lens intact?
I had a look around and this was the only example stating similar size to yours, putting it at around 1940.
Vintage POCKESCOPE WOLLENSAK 4" Pocket Telescope (09/23/2011)

Here's a similar period advertisement, showing three different sizes and I would have to pick the middle sized one as having most similar shape to yours.

That model was 4 and a half times power as opposed to 6 times for the Senior and 3 times for the Junior.
