Smith & Beck Antique Microscope Owned and Used by W.B.Carpenter 1855
Smith& Beck Microscope owned and used by W.B.Carpenter 1855, Click to View Image Album Click to View Image Album Click to View Image Album This listing offers a unique chance to purchase a working microscope used by one of the foremost and familiar microscopists of the nineteenth century. William.Benjamin Carpenter. That the instrument was a working microscope owned by Dr Carpenter is evidenced by various references: The delivery books of Smith& Beck. Where an Educational model microscope, numbered 1043, was delivered to Dr Carpenter on 13.11.55(see description for a photo of the entry) Smith& Beck's pamphlet of the"Description. Price&c of the Educational Microscope Manufactured by Smith, Beck& Beck" which includes a testimonial on the instrument from Carpenter, who describes it as follows: Having for some ... moremonths past made constant use of Smith& Beck's Educational Microscope as my working instrument. See description for an image of the full reference) A description of Smith& Beck's Educational Microscope(undoubtedly the instrument offered here) As a late entry in the first edition of Carpenter's seminal work, The Microscope and it's Revelations, one of the most popular and reprinted works on nineteenth century microscopy(see description for a photograph of the book entry) W.B.Carpenter's reputation as an eminent microscopical investigator was firmly established by the mid-nineteenth century. With his appointment as Fullerian Professor of Physiology at the Royal Institution in 1845, the position taken shortly after his election as a fellow of the Royal Society. His pioneering researches in marine zoology are considered the impetus behind the subsequent expeditions of HMS Lightning and Challenger, indeed it is possible that the portability of his Educational microscope may have made it perfect for use during Carpenter's regular working excursions to the Scottish islands in the mid to late 1850s, where he examined oceanographic soundings on site, publ

Striking Smith Beck & Beck Binocular Microscope in Good Condition. England, 1860
Striking Binocular Microscope Smith Beck& Beck in Good Condition. England. 1860 Fine binocular microscope made 1860. Quite well preserved and working right. This instrument was manufactured in England and has survived to our days in good condition. It comes in its original case, made of solid mahogany wood and also well preserved. Most of the microscope’s component parts are made of polished brass, and a few are made of black iron. The instrument mounts a three-lens revolving nosepiece and comes with some accessories that are stored in their corresponding compartments, inside the wooden box. At the foot of the microscope we find the embossed manufacturer’s name: SMITH. BECK& BECK– LONDON. We can also see the serial number 1454 engraved into a golden oval shape. The manufacturing firm was founded by James Smith, who was actually fired ... moreby Joseph Jackson Lister(a famous designer of object lens systems) to make good quality stands for his developments. In 1841 and thanks to Lister’s help, Smith had already had a business of his own in London. In 1847 Richard Beck, a nephew of Lister’s, was sent as an apprentice to Smith’s factory and the firm started to be called Smith& Beck. Later, Beck’s brother(Joseph) joined them and the firm changed its name for Smith, Beck& Beck. This particular microscope was manufactured in those times. In spite of being around 150 years old. The microscope looks great. The brass shows the logical though subtle signs of the trace of time; these details provide the piece with personality. This instrument can also be folded in order to be put away into the wooden case, in its own compartment. The case is also in good condition and preserves the original handle and shutting hooks. Inside the lid there is a label with the name of an English scientific material maker, H. CARTER BOWLES. Any lover of scientific antiques will appreciate this rare binocular microscope’s beauty and functionality. Measurements: Width: 7.4 in/19 cm. Height: 12.9 in/33 cm. I think I left nothing in the des
