A stanhope or stanho-scope is an optical device that enables the viewing of microphotographs without using a microscope. They were invented by René Dagron in 1857. Dagron bypassed the need for an expensive microscope to view the microscopic photographs by attaching the microphotograph at the end of a modified Stanhope lens. These Anhueser Busch knifes originally came in over 60-70 varieties and were given out by Anheuser Busch founder Adolphus Busch. They date from the 1870's and were used as calling cards and incentive rewards. Adolphus was a pioneer in all respects. He was the first to pasteurize beer, invented the refrigerated rail car and developed a national market. He traveled extensively and lived several months a year in Germany were he was treated like royalty. He was known for his extravagant gift giving and his knives represent one such example.We are a Top Rated Plus seller and stand behind every item we sell.
