Here's a lovely box with what appear to be over 200 antique(many dated 1896) microscope slides in excellent condition. I haven't unpacked every last one as they're carefully put in there with tissue. And it's NOT my area of expertise, so photos are a random sampling. I'll go through them more thoroughly if someone insists. Shipping can be modified at buyer's request for obvious reasons of fragility, otherwise I'll use UPS. Delivery/pick-up also a possibility between here and NYC. Box measures approximately 9" x 11 1/4" 4 1/2"
