Verick Laboratory Microscope No.7
Extracted from Traité
Èlèmentaire du Microscope by E. Trutat, 1883
Constant Verick
advertised himself as a "èlève spécial du Hartnack"
(special pupil of E. Hartnack) both in the
signatures he used for some of his instruments and
in his catalogs. By the mid 1870's he established
his own firm where a number of different microscope
models were produced, among which is the double
pillar model presented herein. In 1882, the firm
was succeeded by his son-in-law Maurice
Stiassnie.
While this microscope was referred to as the Model No.7 in the above publication, it was called the Model No.6 in the 1885 Verick catalog as shown below. Evidently, the model designation changed between years.
