R & J Beck Stereoscopic microscope 1872, War office marking
Stunning stereoscopic microscope produced by R & J Beck around 1872. This example has a cast iron horse shoe base with two upright columns leading to the angle adjustment. There are broad arrows on the base, by the optics and on each eye piece. Faint remains of the name 'Beck' can be seen. Serial number 6451 confirms the date of 1872 and would be the Beck ''economic'' microscope due to its construction from cast iron.
In good overall condition, some minor marks and wear which are age related. Optics are good. A lovely piece of history.
