Condition:
The item is in fair condition showing age patinaand usage wear. The lenses are in good condition, some are with clearvision, and others have dust or stains which will need cleaning. The magnificationmechanisms (the focusing knobs) are working but will need some attention andTLC to refine their working order. The image quality is fair as can be seenin one of the photos using the A3 Zeiss Lens. In the other lenses, I could notsee clearly. The wooden box has wear on the exterior with a rustic look and asmall broken edge (see photo). The metal handle above is missing and so is thekey. The accessories slide-door wooden case has one hair-line crack.
Please note that this microscope is very old and is being auctionednot for it's working order & quality of the magnified lenses but for itscollectible value and for presentation display. Sold as-is without any guarantyon its working order.
