Brass ... moreMicroscope My clients husband found this microscope in the remains of an old building and cleaned it up very well. Most all the adjustable parts move. Though some are a little harder than others. It is missing 1 of the 3 magnifying lenses that can rotate to any one of the 3 positions. It may be missing other parts that I don't know about. The eye piece does not appear to be the proper one for this scope, but does fit in the chamber. The mirror at the base does have blemishes on both sides. It has many more options than some of the other scopes that I have found from this era. It has 2 patent dates that I can find, one from Feb 1897& one from Aug. 1897. The serial number is on the base#26739. It is 14 1/2" Tall x 6" Deep x 4 1/4" Wide I was unable to really see anything as I didn't have the knowledge or the material to test. I'm sure that it does need some restoration. Though it is a great looking decorative piece as it sits. This is the condition it has been in for many years and I did not attempt to polish or take apart to clean.

outstanding collecting piece optic ww1 complete with standaard Bausch& Lomb Opt. Co 1918 WW1. Really a collectors item what you do not see a lot Bausch& Lomb was founded in 1853 by two German immigrants. John Jacob Bausch and Henry C. Lomb in Rochester, New York. The company also produced photographic lenses(1883) Spectacle lenses(1889) microtomes(1890) binoculars and telescopes(1893)From 1892 in cooperation with Zeiss in Germany, the company produced optical lenses. In this manner, at the end of the 19th century, the product range included eyeglasses, microscopes and binoculars, as well as projectors, camera lenses and camera diaphragms. Expansion of production at the beginning of the 20th century With the growth of the US army. Under President Theodore Roosevelt and the build up of the naval fleet, Bausch& Lomb received the ... morecommission, through the supplier Saegmuller, to manufacture high-precision lenses for optical measurement and founded a joint venture with Saegmuller. At the same time as this new expansion, the significance of scientific research was realized, and a research department with five members was started to develop new products and improve old ones. A new alliance with the Zeiss company in Germany ensured competitive advantages for the three participants, Bausch& Lomb, Saegmuller and Zeiss, in terms of patent use and opening new markets. In 1902, William Bausch, the son of the founder, developed a process to create the desired lens shape directly by casting molten glass. Previously, the glass parts for the lenses had to be separated, ground and polished in a complicated process, so this brought enormous savings in time and materials. The company produced the first optical quality glass in America during the early to mid 1900s. By the year 1903 the company began manufacturing microscopes. Binoculars, and camera shutters. The First and Second World Wars The further development of the firm was affected by political events. Because of the World Wars and the consequent need for optical
