For sale is a Royal Soft Focus 150mm Series II No.2 f/4.5 Lens in fair condition. The front cell has some stains that can be seen only against the light. The aperture ring has been removed, so the lens can be used only wide open. There is no flange, and no caps, but the lens will be well-protected during shipping.
I've sold some Royal lenses earlier, but they've been in the 9 or 10 inch versions. Soft focus lenses in the 6 inch range are not very common. As far as I can figure out from browsing the internet, this is an early Verito.
