Two wooden microscope boxes, empty, and a bundle of Edmund Scientific optics. Box 1 is made from a light-colored wood, approx. 8.25 x 14 x 9 inches, and has a small metal plate labeled // YASHIMA TOKYO / YASHIMA OPTICAL CO. LTD. //. Inside has rails and guides for securing a microscope and spare parts (not included). There is a lock on the door but there is no key; Box 2 is made from a dark-stained wood and the outside is covered in a black leather-like material.
