Description & Condition:
Despite the original polystyrene packaging being in very poor and degraded condition, the microscope itself is in excellent working order. All mechanical parts move smoothly, the lenses are clear, and the magnification levels (100x, 200x, and 300x) function perfectly for a crisp view. This is a sturdy metal instrument that performs exactly as it should. The set also includes a collection of rare, high-quality professional microslides prepared in England by N.B.S. (including honey bee and butterfly wing scales), which have been well-preserved. This is a great opportunity to own a fully functional vintage scientific tool where performance matters more than the state of the box.
