Antique c1911 Ernst Leitz Wetzlar Brass Microscope, Cased, Free Slides Included

This is an antique (c1911), Ernst Leitz Wetzlar Brass Microscope, Model Number 140963. Superficially good condition, with some significant marks to brass (see photos).

The marks are noticeable but seem to give the microscope character and age when on display. The microscope is not in working order - some parts need replacing to allow focusing of lenses - so specimens cannot be viewed. In its current condition, the item makes a great display feature.

The upper section can be tilted at an angle for a different look. The interior wooden framing was snapped/loose.

I have attempted a basic fix with glue, which seems to be holding. Outer case is good condition, though lock is missing the key. The case has sliding compartments for lenses and storage. Wide variety of specimens included on slides, I've not looked through them all properly. Photos show condition of items.

If you have any other questions of require more photos, please get in touch.
