Early microscope toys

I found this while going through my old pictures.  This was one of my earliest "high-tech" toys--a Bausch and Lomb metallograph.  I really don't remember how I got it (probably in the late 1950's), but it had all kinds of mechanical and optical parts including a large bellows.  It mainly looked cool and took up too much room so it finally got torn apart for scrap parts.
