Apollo Program, c1960s, Prototype "Microscope" Base (5x4x4") A fascinating tooled metal prototype microscope base that can be raised and lowered to focus using a screw mechanism and has a mechanical light scource controlled by a wheeled shutter mechanism built into the top of the base. White velcro is attached to one end of the top alongside of a locking mechanism. There is an ID label sewn onto the power cable that reads: "P/N PCC-F20022-1 / Class 1". The base is engraved "PCG-F" and "S/N 000". This would appear to be a prototype and is probably unique.
Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,500.
Ex. The Leopold A. Hein Family collection.
