A New Microscope

My new microscope, which is a Henry Crouch, was recently purchased at the excellent camera shop of Mr Palmer of Bridport Dorset ( Near the bus station). I have improved the fine focus with a new adjustment and I have purchased an alternative low power objective lens of Voigtlaender & sohn A G 38mm (Euryscop), for my little Foraminiferids. The Boxed microscope also contained the standard pair of objective lenses in brass cylinders with data. The Number of the microscope is 8801 and I wonder if anyone has a book containing data such as the age of this instrument. I really would be obliged for this information. brian.darnton@googlemail.com
