Vintage "Baby Microscope" Set, Made in Occupied Japan

A charming and collectible "Baby Microscope" set from the post-WWII Occupied Japan era (1945-1952). This miniature educational set features a compact microscope, housed in its original box, along with a collection of prepared specimen slides. Each slide is meticulously labeled, showcasing various anatomical specimens such as the "Mouth Parts of a Honey-Bee" and "Antenna of [Insect]." The set is a wonderful reflection of mid-20th century craftsmanship, designed for children’s educational use. The original box retains its vintage font and decorative design, adding further appeal to collectors.

  • Condition: Good, no remarkable damage. Age-appropriate wear to boxes.
  • Size: Microscope: 4.5" X 2" X 2.25"

This set would make a delightful addition to any collection of vintage educational toys or Occupied Japan memorabilia.
