Illustrated Descriptive Catalogue Of Achromatic Microscopes Telescopes Opera Race And Field Glasses And Other Optical Philosophical Mathematical

Excerpt from Illustrated Descriptive Catalogue of Achromatic Microscopes, Telescopes, Opera, Race and Field Glasses, and Other Optical, Philosophical, Mathematical, Surveying, and Standard Meteorological Instruments Though the following pages are intended to supply the place of a Catalogue only, it will be found, on careful perusal, that they contain much useful information and descriptive explanation, necessary for the amateur and student in the selection of any particular instrument or apparatus, and which I hope will make this little work more acceptable to my numerous and kind patrons than a mere Price List. Being a practical working optician and scientific instrument maker, assisted by the most skilled and experienced workmen, I can confidently assert that the best class work only is made in my establishment and having the advantage of extensive workshops on the premises, under my own superintendence, I can undertake. To execute any order to satisfaction and with despatch. The Microscope has always formed a special branch of my business, the improvement of which, with its accessory apparatus and object glasses, occupies my constant care and attention: a few extracts which I append, from several authors of standard works on the Microscope, will amply testify this assertion.
