FS: Large Collection of Schneider Large Format Lens Literature
I am selling my complete collection of Schneider Large Format Lens literature. It took me many years and several hundred dollars to accumulate this lot. But, rather than flog all the pieces individually on eBay, I'd like to keep the collection in tact. The collection of literature covers the Schneider lenses from the early-1930s through the year 2004, when Schneider intruduced their last large format taking lenses. It includes info on all of Schneider's famous lenses (Xenars, Angulons, Symmars (of all varieties from the earliest Dagor type Symmars through the Super Symmar XL Aspheric series), Super Angulons, as well as the Goerz legacy products (Gold Dot Dagors and Red Dot Artars). Other than the 1940s (WWII period), all decades are well represented, especially the period from the mid-1950s to the 1990, when Schneider was at their heyday of large format lens production.

Here's a list of the most compelling items:

Note: Schneider's use of date codes varied over time. So, some of the dates below are inferred based on assumptions about the various date code formats, as well as the contents of the brocuhures. These dates should be considered approximate and not 100% exact in all cases.
