This Microscope is signed with Andrew Pritchard and the address of 162 Fleet Street. It is Pritchard’s “Massive Model” and is considered rare. It also has an engraved S/N of 565 which dates this microscope to between 1839-1852. The binocular set came post 1862. It is speculated the original Prichard was sent to P&L for an “upgrade”. This microscope stands about 26 inches (66 cm) tall when fully extended. This Microscope has no case or accessories, and the Binocular set does not have the P&L Signatures.

I am not a business, but an individual that inherited a few hundred antique Microscopes from my Dad who had been collecting for over 20 years. I am keeping a small subset of the collection and will sell the rest.
