My oldest working microscope of several others is this 1898 Bausch and Lomb monocular. I use this microscope a lot because it continues to provide good results. It was all froze up and filthy when I purchased it but I only gave 27 bucks for it.

Re: My Old Microscope:
Wow! This is a museum piece in perfect working condition. I'm sure you are very proud of it. Thank you for showing it. I hope you will show us your other microscopes too in due course.
Re: My Old Microscope:
Rodney, it is beautiful!!!
Don't know what your other scopes are or where you live but have you considered donating it to a museum so others can enjoy it?
Any idea what it's worth? I bet a lot more that $27

I live in Georgia USA Jim. No I don`t have a clue of the value but glad all of you liked it. Some of my better pictures were taken with this microscope. I hope to send out some pictures of a few specimen pictures taken with this microscope. I did have an midge fly head on a slide???
