The case contains a polarizer and analyzer lens, a graduated circle on a rotating object stage (to determine the polarization angle), slide bars and support to mount the set on the projector, a Berek condenser and a box of specimens mounted on glass plates. The large objective lens (seen in the picture inside the case's lid) appears to be missing.
