"Toy Electrophore Circa 1878 Fun Physics"
ELECTROPHORE TOY circa 1878 FUN PHYSICS Exceptional scientific toy by Jules PEIFFER presented at the Paris Universal Exhibition of 1878. This toy uses the principle of static electricity highlighted by scientists at the end of the 18th century such as Volta or Ewald von Kleist. It contains various accessories to carry out various experiments. The accessories are in very good condition but I cannot say that the box is completely complete. The lid of the box is slightly dented and discolored. Instructions attached, as well as a business card for Jules PEIFFER's science toy store in Paris. All science toys from the 1870s are extremely rare. 25x35x8.5cm.
