I have had several requests for a "Hands Free" style magnifier so here is one for you folks. LumiCraft is a wearable 2X power "hands-free" lighted magnifier with a 4X power bi-focal spot lens. Its built-in light prevents eyestrain and provides bright, shadowless illumination. It has an adjustable neck cord for any sewing or craft activity where both hands are needed.

Also makes a handy paperweight! Measurements: 2-1/2" across the base and 1-1/2" tall.

We have had a lot of requests for a  magnifier to help with reading so here it is! It is crystal-clear acrylic, compact and can go any where with you. Also use it as a bookmark. Includes a built-in 6" ruler. Measures: 7-1/2" x  2-1/2".

This acrylic magnifier is a great one to use for stamps, coins and small items or to "zoom" in on a specific area or details on photos etc. Very popular among genealogists! 3X power.

This is actually known as a "Linen Tester" because square opening at the bottom is in a 1" square and you can count the threads on linen (or any other fabric). It folds up into a tiny little box and can be carried easily with you to the library. It has a 6x power and although that might seem low, it is amazing what this little magnifier can do! Great Quality! Measures about 2" tall.

Now this is what you all need and want! a BIG magnifying sheet measuring 8-1/2" x 11". Perfect for reading telephone directories, maps, dictionaries and newspapers! Rumor has it that it also works well with microfilm readers.

This nice plastic magnifying lense is great to have along in your purse, pocket or travel case when at the library or court house. Comes in a protective blue vinyl case with gold lettering that says "Genealogy, Still searching after all these years". Makes a cute, inexpensive gift! This is not terribly powerful, but will certainly help! Lens measures 3 1/2" x 5".

OK, you have to have this one! A very light weight and very powerful little magnifier. You won't believe the power of this little fellow! Check those photos or negatives or old documents with ease! The greatest value in magnifiers we could find! Measures about 2" tall.

Another great find from Carson, the optical people. Cross-stitchers, you will love this one as it has magnets and can be used with metal to attach your patterns. Or, it can be used for reading lines in a book. Lots of uses!
