Damn Richard, you reminded me of a trip I made to Detroit when I was a kid. My dad wanted me to go out to an auction at a big metallurgical lab and buy a photo-micrograph. I did, but got caught up in the auction enthusiasm, and also bought a Vickers Photo-micrograph, ca. 1935ish. Built like a work of art, polished brass, the works. Problem was, it took 5x7" sheet film, so was too expensive to use. But it sure was pretty to look at. I think I traded it for a steam engine.
