                adjustment by our new patent frictionless motion.
                Plain and concave mirrors hanging to a swinging bar
                so as to allow the most oblique light for high
                powers, and so that the distance from the object
                may be varied; sub-stage in which the revolving
                diaphragm or other accessories may be fitted; two
                eyepeices, viz: A and C, two objectives viz ;
                3/4-inch and 1/5-and the latter of 108 degrees
                angular aperture, resolving easily P.
                Angulatum by central light; magnifying powers from
                50 to 375 diameters. Eye-piece micrometer, camera

			                 Bausch and
			                  Lomb Optical Company's Fitting for Neutral Tint
			                  Camera Lucida.- Fig. 163 shows the fitting
			                  adopted by the Bausch and Lomb Optical Co. It is
			                  made of vulcanite, and the half ring to which the
			                  frame holding the neutral tint glass is fixed fits
			                  on the cap of the eye-piece. The vulcanite is
			                  sufficiently elastic to obtain a good grip of the
			                  eye-piece.
      The glass stage and slide
      carrier are described in  
       Gundlach patent Dec. 25, 1877 and the swinging sub-stage is revealed in the Oct. 3, 1876 patent
    
							  
  
	      

	
              
                The microsocpe was
                designed and made by Ernst Gundlach while employed
                by Bausch & Lomb.
                
                This microscope was the property of Arthur Claassen (1859-1920),
                who was well-known as a successful choral and
                orchestral conductor. It was purchased from his
                granddaughter for this collection.
