(28cm.) wide(2)Dr Mill notes:Perhaps the most highly regarded of the 19th-century microscope makers, this firm was founded in 1840 by Hugh Powell. Two years later Peter Lealand his brother-in-law became a partner. The business continued until the start of World War I. The no 1 stand was developed in the 1860s and accompanied by the rather simpler no 2 and the smaller no 3. The address on the stand is 170 Euston Road London which was used from 1857-1905. It is dated 1868.It is housed in a good quality case fitted with another case of extensive accessories. There is a Turrel stage carrying a further plate that slides and rotates and has spring-loaded grips for the slides. The rackwork substage carries two plates each moved by racks through arcs, but does not provide 360o rotation. The coarse focus rack is cut horizontally.Both monocular and binocular tubes are present The Wenham binocular has two prisms marked “For low power and opaque objects” and “For High powers” in addition to a blanking piece for mono use. The spare prisms are housed in red leather cases. Objectives housed in brass cases are 2, 1, 1/2,1/4, 1/8 in. A case for a 2/3in is present without the lens and does not match.

A FINE MONOCULAR COMPOUND MICROSCOPE BY ANDREW ROSS, LONDON, CIRCA 1858heavily constructed in lacquered brass, signed on the back of the foot A. Ross, London and numbered 1810, bar limb supporting 8in. tube with triple nose piece assembly, substage condensing platform with concave/convex mirror, contained in a fitted case with double doors, with some accessories including, third nose piece, alternative eyepieces, pincers, and bulls-eye condenser on stand, -- 20¼in. (51.5cm.) high (assembled)Bonhams Lots Road, 13th March 1997, lot 101.Dr. Mill notes:The Ross company was founded in 1832 in Clerkenwell but by 1857 was based in Holborn. Andrew Ross was the top London optician of his day and worked in partnership with J J Lister (father of Lord Lister) to create a true scientific tool. The form of stand with a bar limb (Lister Limb) and splayed foot was widely copied. This form of his stand was produced in 1851 for the Great Exhibition where it won the top Gold Medal. The serial no 1810 dates it to 1858. After Andrew's death in that year, his son Thomas continued the microscope business which finally ended around 1900.The elaborate mahogany case contains signed and dated A. Ross objectives of 11/2",1",1/2",1/4"; there is also a Ross lens of 1/8" with a non-standard thread probably from the 1830s. The 1/2" and 1/4" lenses are equipped with correction collars. Invented by Ross these enable the lenses to be corrected for cover glass thickness There are 4 eyepieces, condenser, analyser & polariser, bullseye condenser, and several small accessories.

A COMPOUND MONOCULAR MICROSCOPE BY R & J BECK, LONDON, CIRCA 1870constructed in lacquered brass and signed on the 7in. tube as per title and numbered 6784, contained in fitted chest-type box with some accessories, including four nose pieces and alternative eyepieces, lid with retailer's label for J. Kendall, Barrow-in-furness -- 16½in. (42cm.) wide Dr Mill notes:James Smith started an instrument company in 1839; appointed Richard Beck as a partner in 1847 to form Smith & Beck. After Joseph Beck joined as a partner it became Smith, Beck & Beck in 1857. It became R & J Beck in 1865. The Company was bought by Griffin & George in 1960 and is now part of Ealing Optical USA. Beck was a major manufacturer up to the 1960s. This is Beck's 2nd Class Microscope called their "Best Student's or No3 stand". It was introduced by 1850 and continued until the late 1880s and was widely used at home by amateurs.This instrument unlike earlier examples has a full substage. It comes with a flat mahogany box and is equipped with a wide range of accessories e.g. erecting glass;Lieburkuhn; polarizer & analyser; s/s dark cell holder+3 cells; forceps; glass box. There are 4 objectives - 3",11/2", 2/3",1/5". There are 3 eyepieces and a Wenham parabolic condenser. Serial 6784.A label within the box states "from J.Kendell MRCVS Barrow in Furness to R & J Beck 68 Cornhill London JAN 12th [18]95". The Company were at this address from 1881 to 1994. The Company’s Production book (p 63) shows that the work was given to J. Watson on 16 April 1874 and returned on 8 May.It was delivered to the Cornhill shop on the 22 May but there is an additional date added later of 28/12/75.wear to lacquer.

A 'ROYAL' MODEL MONOCULAR MICROSCOPE BY WATSON & SONS, LONDON, CIRCA 1910heavily constructed in oxidised and lacquered brass, signed behind as per title, inscribed Royal and numbered 14431, 5in. main tube with rotating quadruple nose piece, with sub-stage condenser and plano-convex mirror, contained in fitted box with some accessories -- 13 x 10in. (33 x 25.5cm.)Christie's South Kensington, 29 May 1997, lot 225.Dr. Mill notes:Founded in 1837 (but making microscopes only from 1876) Watsons became the leading UK maker in the end of the 19th and first half of the 20th centuries. The company was sold to Pye in 1957 and to Phillips in 1967, ceasing to make microscopes in 1970.Their top model was called the Van Heurck and was the leading quality instrument of the period. These represented the last in the long line of hand made instruments - as opposed to mass production . This, however, is their "Royal" model. It was intended to contain the main features of the Van Heurck in a rather more compact form. It has numerous controls and all the mechanical movements can be adjusted to provide critical performance.. The stand cost £62 17s 6p in 1937.The mahogany case contains 2", 1" & 1/2" Parachromatic objectives but only a single eyepiece remains. The revolving nosepiece is probably later. Also present are a brass compressorium. ref: Watson Catalogue 1936 p79.

A COMPOUND MONOCULAR MICROSCOPE BY J.BECK, LONDON, CIRCA 1867signed and inscribed on the annular foot, Universal Microscope, R & J Beck, London and numbered 4757, square-sectioned barrel on an attached platform with lateral movement, and magnifier and mirror, contained within original fitted case -- 12½ x 7in. (32 x 18cm.)Christie's South Kensington, 19th October 2005, lot 495.Dr. Mill notes:“This instrument is the result of an endeavour to make a very low priced compound achromatic microscope by reducing its construction to the simplest possible form. Still retaining all that a really useful instrument requires....” Richard Beck ‘Achromatic Microscopes’ 1865”This aim was well achieved by radically rethinking the microscope. The base is circular, cast in brass and part blackened with three cork feet. A single round pillar rises to carry the limb which is free to rotate laterally alongside the pillar to provide inclination. The coarse focussing is by chain drive. Fine focus is affected simply by means of a lever mounted loosely on the spindle of the coarse focus knob. Holding the lever against the edge of the milled knob enables it to be turned finely A small rod fixed below the stage carries the concave mirror and a simple diaphragm plate. . There is a collar for a condensor below the stage but none is present. However a small bull’s-eye on a short Musschenbroke arm can be swung below the stage as a condensor or used above the stage for opaque objects. The small stage is plain with a single double ended clip intended to hold a a sliding stage plate there is no evidence that this was ever present. The tube is unusual being a square-sectioned brass casting with rough blackened panels. There is an achromatic objective and a built-in non-standard ocular. Serial 4757The production book describes this as one of a batch of 24 "Universal Bases" given to G Pitt on the 6th July with the last returned on March 19th 1868. But this stand was sent to the Cornhill shop on the 31st July 1867.Good overall condition.
