One of the pieces of educational experiment apparatus used at The Fourth Higher School. This item is a realistic scope, and was used for optics education. It is a stereoscopic mirror; if you put a stereographic image in a frame and observe it through the lens, it will appear as a three-dimensional image. A stereographic image is a set of photographs of the image seen with the left eye and the right eye. The device came with 69 three-dimensional images. It is also listed in the physics instrument catalog of an educational product manufacturing company in 1913. This is a product of the Fine-Art Photographers' Publishing Co., a company that published landscape paintings for stereoscopes in London around 1900.

Established in 1989 to preserve and utilize valuable materials handed down from the predecessor school when the university campus was relocated from Kanazawa Castle Site. Former teaching materials such as beautifully shaped physics experiment apparatus and mushroom moulage specimens that allow you to observe mushrooms as they were 100 years ago are fun-to-see natural museum materials in the museum's collection. The museum also holds many archive such as timetables that show the hard work of medical students 100 years ago, as well as archaeological materials excavated within the campus.
