Some of the best slides I have viewed with the Wentzscope are a fly's head
and a flea.

What's your favorite thing to look at under a microscope?

I have an old Wentzscope and would like to replace the 12 slides I
have currently.  Rather than focusing on a theme (e.g., insects), I
thought it would be more fun to have a collection of slides that are
particularly interesting, cool, or surprising.  (The exhibit is about the
skill of observation.)

While I welcome all suggestions, I will not be able to include
living things or things that visitors bring in (that microscope is in
the neighboring exhibit).  The magnification of the scope is 125x.

Thanks for your ideas!
