How Good is Rolleicord's Lens?

I thought I'd check out the quality of the Schneider-Krauznach Xenar 3.5 lens after running a roll of film through it to check if it was still operational, with no light leaks (passed that test with flying colours!). I have to say I'm quite impressed with image sharpness, even handheld.

I’m working on the first roll in my Rolleicord iii after removing a lot of fungus from the lens elements. Hopefully my images will look as sharp as yours.
 
If they'd had our films in the 1930s...
