From my collection;
Up for sale a biggest and hard to find a 25 inches F4 ~ 4/5 E Francais Petzval lens . The lens comes with a 10 inches square custom made iodized aluminum flange lens board. The lens is about 18 inches tall , the front and rear glass elements measured about 6 ½ inches diameter, weighted 26 lbs. included the flange.
