BULLOCH CONGRESS MODEL
SERIAL NUMBER: 262
The large hardwood case has a brass handle on top and a lock for the door, although the key is missing. The accessory box slides into the cabinet, but lacks its insert and additional accessories. The accessory case still has impressions on the bottom of many objective cans that must have previously been with the instrument. As with many other Bulloch microscopes, there is a sliding wooden base which has three cutouts for the foot of the microscope and this base can slide out of the case; it has grooves on its sides which originally fit into guides fitted to the bottom of the case, now gone.
