Black brass

Three brass microscopes lovingly restored.
Two Wild Heerbrugg M20s, one brightfield and one phase contrast, and a Zeiss inverted phase contrast stand.

Enjoy,

Just an acrylic disk I laid over the hole for the photo. Finding one of these blank caps will be my quest.

I was going through the spare parts to put together a 'trade blanket' post, and was just a few parts shy of completing another one, so I used some Christmas money to finish it.
There aren't enough of these in the world.
