Chemical Heritage Foundation Kaleidoscopes




These kaleidoscopic images are blowing my mind! I wish I could show the close-ups - you can zoom in on the images on the CHF website to see each individual Bakelite button, light bulb and miscroscope. I wish every museum would sift through its collections to do something along these lines. It's fun and instills curiosity about some of the more mundane objects in the CHF's immense collection of scientific ephemera. Way to go, guys!
