Hi all,
For selling this lens in barrel.
Engraved on the lens "Cooke Linse H. D. Taylor's Patent. DRP 86757".
Serial number 52616 - dated 1897.
Aperture goes from 7,7 to 71, it moves well, a bit stiff no stuck at any point.
Lens elements are fine for the exception of three mini-scratches at the rear part of the front element and a chip in the third outer rim. Marked at photos. I'm not expert but I don't think they will have any kind of impact on the photo.
Small dings on the front lens brass, no threads.
Included flange and wooden lens holder for Technical 4x5 cameras type if desired.
Two photos made with the lens:

Probably another person can take much better photos with this lens, my 4x5 is short for this lens.
More photos on demand.
I was thinking on 175$ shipped (standard international mail, tracked). Paypal is fine.
Thank you for looking,
Alex
