Description from the seller

Offered is a vintage microscope set in its original storage box, presumably dating from the second half of the 20th century (circa the 1960s–1980s).

This educational set consists of:

Microscope (height approx. 21 cm)
Original storage box (approx. 26.5 x 27 cm)
Various slides and glass slides
Small bottles and tools
Accessories such as tweezers and instruments

A notable detail is the specimen in liquid (formalin) included, which is typical for educational/biological sets from that period.

The set is representative of school or hobby use and makes an interesting object for collectors of scientific instruments or vintage educational material.

In used vintage condition
Wear to the box (including rust on the handle, signs of use)
Inlay (foam) shows wear/aging
Contents partly incomplete and not tested for operation
Microscope appears optically complete, but operation is not guaranteed
