Ex-Lot 14, Bonhams, Knightsbridge, 25 September 2019.
The collection of Dr MacKinnon.
This type of binocular microscope gives a true stereoscopic image as the beam from the object is split by a symmetrical prism into two beams each of which travel to the eyepiece by a further prism.
For a slightly different model see: Turner, G.L.E, 'The Great Age of the Microscope', catalogue 220.
