Vintage Olympus Tokyo Monocular Microscope – In original wooden case with key & extra eyepiece – Japan, circa 1960

A vintage monocular laboratory and study microscope from the renowned Japanese quality brand Olympus Tokyo.

This robust, heavy quality instrument dates from the 1960s and is in a rarely complete condition.

This lot is unique due to its completeness: the microscope is supplied including the original wooden storage case, the original working key, an extra eyepiece, and the original paper inspection certificate with magnification table that is attached to the inside of the door.

Also included is the historical sticker on the inside from the Dutch distributor of that era: Instrumentenhandel L. Verhave, Hilversum.
