Description
First and very rare offprint in the original wrappers, of this profusely illustrated paper by Doppler, who through the use of spherical mirrors has made a significant contribution to the development of microscopy. Among other things, Doppler in this paper points out the importance of grinding and polishing glasses and metal mirrors. (Cf. Clay: History of the Microscope). - Condition: Spine with five tiny cuttings of former binding, wrappers with some barely seeable spots and wear, overall in good condition. – Rarity: ABPC (1973ff.) and JAP/APO (1988ff.) record no copies at all at auction; no copies in trade. – Reference: Poggendorf I, 595; Schuster: Doppler IV, 42 and 43.
