Description is exactly The compound microscope is made from brass and has a circular base. The sub-stage mirror is fixed to the base on a gimbal which only allows it to rotate on its horizontal axis. The instrument has three scrolled supports which hold the stage and support the body-tube. The stage has the stage clips underneath it which hold the specimen so it can be observed through the circular cut out. There is also a central aperture for illumination by transmitted light. The body-tube is marked with numbers 1 to 4 which indicate the focus position of each lens. Coarse focusing is achieved by moving the body-tube closer or further from the fixed stage by sliding it. The ocular lens has a cover which can be slid open or closed. The instrument is signed "Lincoln London" on the body-tube.
