Like who made HQ lenses?

I can't find anything on line, except some HQ 500mm lenses and binoculars for sale.

I just bought a new, in the box, 35-70mm, two touch, f3.5/4.5 multi-coated zoom for $8. The Montgomery Ward price tag says "$99.99".

It looks well made. All metal.

Since it had a Minolta MD mount it was probably made around 1980.

The only marking on the lens -- other than the serial # -- is "LENS MADE IN KOREA".

Any ideas who might have made it?
