For Sale FS: ACME Rapid Rectilinear Lens

[Fotoguy20d]

For sale, the #1 lens used by coyotes everywhere. This is a #6 "ACME" Rapid Rectilinear, around a 16-17" focal length. Glass is in pretty good shape - there are some light scratches visible against a backlight, and a hint of edge separation. No flange, no stops. The hood has a dent in it, and the thread in the front cell for mounting the hood has a small chunk taken out of it (see photo). The barrel has some corrosion on it - personally, I would polish it up with Brasso but I know most prefer the aged patina so I left it as is.

Still possibly the best opening sales pitch line in an APUG classified ad that I've ever seen...

Sadly, it turns out there are no coyotes on APUG.
