Notes: B&L first introduced the new Model DDE into its range in 1929. It was described using the following (abridged) text: “DDE – A New Research and Photographic Microscope. The word “new” is so often used to describe a revamped apparatus that one hesitates to use it but in the case of this Research Microscope, the word “new” can certainly be used in the fullest sense of the word. This instrument is a radical departure from any existing type of microscope. When we took under consideration the design of a new Research Microscope, we adopted the suggestion of Dr. Lester W. Sharp of Cornell University and of his associate Dr. L. F. Randolph of the U. S. Department of Agriculture and Cornell University of placing the arm at the front of the instrument, so as to give free access to the object, stage, objectives, sub-stage and mirror and thus offer greater convenience and comfort to the user. With the further aim of providing extreme rigidity we have eliminated the usual inclination joint for arm and pillars, which are made in one piece. The stage is thus always horizontal except when the instrument is used photomicrographically, when the entire instrument is placed in horizontal position resting upon three bosses provided on the two arms and base, thus leaving each part intact and in the vertical stage.” £1000 - £2000

The microscope comes with a hand-written letter which reads ‘Robert Taylor, Butler to Lord Carnaven, gave this microscope to my dad, Mr Oscar William Osborn. Used at Lord Carnaven’s home….to examine the finds from Tutankhamun’s Tomb. When I opened the microscope case in the front room of 48 Kynance Gardens, Stanmore, two very large (1.5”) black beetles flew out. The microscope case hadn’t been opened for years. I opened it during the evening while Doris was flower arranging at St Anselm’s Church Hall. Never found the beetles again.
