Description

Large, signed Newton & Co Binocular Microscope C 1880 with case and accessories.   I do not have a lot of information on this microscope from my dad’s collection.  The focusing mechanism and the X-Y stage motion both operate smoothly.   As for accessories: There are stage mounted forceps, tweezers, several blank slides, that look quite a bit newer, brass lens storage containers, free standing bulls eye condenser (missing the glass lens) and a few what look like additional eye pieces.   The brass lens cases shown in the image are empty.  In addition, the key fits in the lock but lock does not turn.   As shown in the image, the case has a few larger cracks.  One crack is near the top of the front part of the lid and the other crack is on the back of the case.
