Hi Ricky

Not a historian myself but the sturdy stand and some of its features
seem similar in your photos to microscopes sold for projection. eg see
David Bull's article on Micscape

DAVID!!
That's exactly what it is! The only thing missing is the power unit. I
even know now why the circle is cut into the glass square!

You not only are a historian, you have solved something that depite my
asking a million people, and prowling the 'net about, I was no closer
to an answer than at the start.
No doubt about it at all. My microscope is identical to that shown on
the web page you provided. I am in your debt my friend!

A million thanks
