Biografie
The family firm was established in 1750 when a small optical workshop was opened in Spitalfields. The growing demand for high quaility optical apparatus necessitated several moves in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The business became a limited company in 1907 and amalgamated with the firm of Aitchison in 1927. The House of Dollond: two hundred years of optical service 1750-1950 by Henry Charles King was published in 1950.
