Antique Bausch & Lomb Optical Co. No. 8921 Microtome, Patent 1908
Step into lab history with this Antique Bausch & Lomb Optical Co. No. 8921 Microtome, patented in 1908—a true collector's treasure! In nice cosmetic condition with vintage charm, it’s perfect for museums or personal displays. Note: There’s an etching on the side of the hand crank from its university origin. The hand crank rotates smoothly, moving internal components as expected, and the blade holder loosens and slides back and forth as intended—though the blade clamp is Spencer, not Bausch & Lomb. We’re unsure how to advance the specimen holder (it may not be functioning correctly), and the unit could benefit from cleaning and lubrication. Sold AS-IS with no returns—buyer assumes all risk, and only what’s pictured is included.
Compatibility: Designed for vintage histology or pathology labs (please confirm fitment for your setup).
