The microscope shows normal signs of age and laboratory use, including some cosmetic marks to the paintwork and remnants of a former label on the microscope arm. These are clearly visible in the photographs.
The objectives and main mechanical components are present and the microscope is complete as shown in the photographs.
This is an attractive vintage scientific instrument, suitable either for practical laboratory or educational use, or for a collector of scientific equipment.
The photographs form an integral part of the description and clearly show the condition of the microscope.
The microscope will be carefully packed for shipping due to its weight and delicate optical components.
