Inspecting lenses with a loupe, Leitz works, 1937

A man in a white coat with a loupe screwed into his eye holds a lens up between finger and thumb under a lamp, a tray of lenses beside him; a view down the window bench shows a row of young workers doing the same, and in close view a fair-haired man raises a jeweller's glass to his eye and stares into it. Every lens was checked for bubbles, scratches and specks before it went into a mount.
