For Sale is a real classic, an absolute tank of a Leitz Ortholux trinocular polarizing microscope. 700,000 by 1867, and he said that this means the’scope probably dates to either 1957 or 1868. This thing is a real beast and it has functions and features I have never seen before in a microscope and don’t know how to use or test. It’s missing the eyepieces and objectives, but I was able to affect a test with some other eyepieces NOT INCLUDED! And simply hand-holding the objective from a scrap B&L StereoZoom, which revealed a nice, clear optical path, although it certainly will need a thorough cleaning if you intend to use this in a production environment or other serious purpose. The extraneous functions were not tested because I simply don’t know how to use this thing. The friendly informant also pointed out that there in fact IS an illuminator mounted to this unit (on the nosepiece turret) but that there is no condenser carrier or condenser (I’m not sure if “condenser” in this context means “Capacitor” or something to do with optics). He also pointed out that the configuration and type suggest it was likely applied in the metallurgical fields. Unit is very heavy.
