For Sale FS: 4x5 Bausch & Lomb rapid rectilinear lens with flange

[athanasius80]

Here's a circa 1910 B&L rapid rectilinear lens in a working shutter with the original mounting flange. The Kodak Autotime shutter gives the original recommendations for speed and aperture (and they're accurate if you are shooting ISO 25ish.)

Focal length: 7 inch (178mm)
Coverage: 4x5 (illuminates 5x7 to the corners)
Glass condition: Some specs, a strong 8.5/10, should shoot fine
Shutter condition: all settings work consistantly, accuracy unverified

This should be a good sharp lens that will cover 4x5 with movements, probably 5x7 a bit wide, mmmaybe 6.5x8.5. Thanks for looking.
