B&L Petrographic Microscope - Need Manual



Well, maybe I don't *need* a manual, but it would be great to get one!

Last weekend, while looking for some trilobite fossils at a local rock
show, I came across a good deal on a Model LN petrographic 'scope. I had
no business buying yet another microscope, but, well, you know how it
is... The scope appears to be complete - it even has the compensators
and centering wrenches, as well as a very nice hardwood case. There is a
routed opening on the left side of the case, just above the latch, that
looks as though it should have held something, but it is empty. Perhaps
the mirror fit into it? I'll have to check that tonight.

All options are open, from an original manual, to .jpg or .pdf scans.

It's too bad I got skunked on an ebay auction last night for
Petrographic Minerology (Wahlstrom). I've already got 2 copies of Kerr's
Optical Minerology and a copy of Neese's book of the same title, so I
guess I didn't really need it (but I didn't need another microscope,
either).

Anyway, if anyone has a copy of the manual, or knows of a source, I'd be
most grateful.

TIA,
Joe

BTW, I did find some nice trilobites, with well preserved eyes.
