A good lacquered-brass German spectrometer,

The platform has various adjustment screws and a prism. It is raised on a tapering column with a fine adjustment screw to a curved support for the first telescope. This is stamped Phys Lab 2182. The eyepiece has rack and pinion adjustment, cross hairs and aperture adjustment screws. The mounting incorporates a pillar and screw clamp for vertical adjustment, and a sprung fine adjustment screw. The curved support arm has a large counterweight. The horizontal scale is enclosed at the base of the main column with two magnifiers and an aperture window, and various adjustment screws. This is mounted on a circular cast-iron base with three adjustable screw feet. The second and third telescopes are mounted from this plate: one moves and has a bubble level, similar vertical adjustment and rack and pinion eyepiece focusing. It is stamped as the first one. The third telescope is fixed in place and has a sprung screw-adjusted aperture with cross-hair, and simple vertical adjustment.
