A simple student microscope, the design is obviously based upon the Zeiss E stands from around 1935. The microscope has a horseshoe-shaped foot with two molded flanges between which the limb with the stage and mirror can be inclined. There is a mirror in a bracket, under the stage is a rotating stop. The square stage has two clips for object glasses. The microscope has only a coarse adjustment with pinion and rackwork on the body tube. There is a triple nosepiece.
