Here's a beautiful giant of a lens. GRAF. Probably from the 1920's.
It's in really lovely shape, with clean crisp glass, and the aperture is silky smooth. It opens a full stop past the f16 advertised. And it has gorgeous shallow depth and a bit of a buzz going at f11.
The big clunky aperture scale is the only one it's got, so probably needs to stay on it. The flange is there for a change! Nice!
So what does a 35" Artar go for? $700 bucks. What is this one worth? I've never seen another like it. Build quality is really magnificent. It may just cover 20X24. Let's try it at $335.00
