Thank you for your interest in the Microscope Historical Society.

The MHS is an USA-based, international group of persons with a common
interest in the history of the microscope as a scientific instrument, an
object of beauty, and a collectable.  We welcome to our group all
individuals interested in the microscope or its applications, past and
present.  We foster the exchange of historical and technical information
among the members.

Members receive three issues of the Journal per calendar year (approximately 35 pages) and a detailed membership roster.  They may submit articles for publication and publish or request information on instruments or microscopy-related items.
