This is Volume 2 of 'Pike’s Illustrated Descriptive Catalogue Of Optical, Mathematical And Philosophical Instruments.' Originally published in 1856, this meticulous catalog offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of scientific instruments during the mid-19th century. Compiled by Benjamin Pike, the author and purveyor of these instruments, the catalog meticulously lists and describes a wide array of tools, complete with illustrations and prices as offered in 1856. From optical devices like telescopes and microscopes to mathematical instruments such as compasses and surveying tools, and philosophical instruments for experimental physics, this volume provides valuable insights into the technological landscape of the era. A vital resource for historians of science, collectors, and anyone interested in the material culture of 19th-century scientific inquiry.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
