I seem to have several of these, so you might as well have at least one: offered here is a very nice 18.5" (marked 469.8mm) Eastman Anastigmat f/10 process lens. The S/N indicates a manufacture date of 1941, back when Kodak made world-class optics.
This lens comes with a built-in mounting flange. I've never used this particular lens, but I've used a similar one on a 12x20, so it's ULF-capable.
The glass is quite nice - just a few specks of dust and a random cleaning whisp. It's uncoated, as Lumenization didn't become standard until a few years later.
The iris turns smoothly. It's a bit tight, but not at all difficult. Someone (not me!) decided to put a drop of oil on the iris. I've wiped what I can off, but haven't done an acetone soak.
$75 + shipping (should be $6.20 for domestic Priority). Paypal OK. Satisfaction guaranteed. $$$ to the apes.
