Selling the whole lot as one. None of these are pristine...and are sold as is. However, some are pretty usable and should be fine.
The good / usable ones:
1. Beattie-Coleman 162mm f/4.5 Portronic Navitar - This one is in pretty good shape. Internal dust and clean blades. This one is ready to shoot.
2. Carl Zeiss Jena Tessar 135mm f/4.5 - This one is usable as is. The shutter speeds sound accurate. The slower one second speed will stick at times. The glass has internal dust and some marks. It has been reviewed by someone in the business and hey felt it would still shoot fine as is.
3. Wollensak 90mm f/6.8 on recessed board with original box - This one should shoot as is. Super cool original box with it. Almost kept it just because of the box. Internal dust and minor marks. Speeds sound pretty accurate. Possibly new old stock actually, as many items were from this location.
Not so usable:
4. Kodak Anastigmat 7 1/2 " f/ 4.5 - This one has internal dust and some haze. May or may not impact contrast.
5. Schneider-Kreuznach Xenar 240mm f/4.5- This one also has internal dust and haze. Not really sure it would produce the greatest of images. Would certainly have decreased contrast.
Anyway, this lot is priced accordingly. Five lenses, none in pristine shape, but several that should work fine. You might be able to clean them up. I'm simply not messing with them because I don't have the time and I want then gone. Trying to price them fairly.
Being sold as is, no returns.
$295 for all five of them
