The evidence presented here is derived from sources as diverse as contemporary trade literature, through newspaper advertisements, to rarely-surviving inventories, and from the instruments themselves. The picture may not yet be complete, but it has been acknowledged that it is more complex than sketched out twenty-five or even fifty years ago. Here is a collection of case-studies from the United Kingdom, the Americas and Europe showing instruments moving from maker to market-place, and, to some extent, what happened next. Contributors are: Alexi Baker, Paolo Brenni, Laura Cházaro, Gloria Clifton, Peggy Aldrich Kidwell, Richard L. Kremer, A.D. Morrison-Low, Joshua Nall, Sara J. Schechner, and Liba Taub. 410 0$aScientific Instruments and Collections$v5. 606 $aScientific apparatus and instruments$xHistory$y18th century 606 $aScientific apparatus and instruments$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aScientific apparatus and instruments$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aScientific apparatus and instruments$xMarketing$xHistory 615 0$aScientific apparatus and instruments$xHistory 615 0$aScientific apparatus and instruments$xHistory 615 0$aScientific apparatus and instruments$xHistory 615 0$aScientific apparatus and instruments$xMarketing$xHistory. 676 $a502.8/4 701 $aMorrison-Low$b A.
