For Sale Two Items. Bausch & Lomb Projection Petzval 5" and a 5 1/4" Burke and James Lens Brd

[jimgalli]

Trying to conserve cyber space putting 2 unrelated things together. We'll see how that goes.

Sweet little 5 inch Petzval type that was used to project 35mm film in an ancient movie projector. It's a Petzval lens. Covers most of 4X5 at infinity. Moved in just a little closer it really shines with a nice Petzval signature. $55.00 + shipping. No aperture. Just cut a tight hole and hold it in place with black gaffer tape.

Super clean Burke and James 5 1/4" lens board except for the one little chunk that got left behind.
This will fit Copal 0, or of course you can hog it out for larger sizes.

Very Clean lens board fits many Burke & James "Shaky Jake" cameras. $16 + shipping.

Holy Cow, I did not see this, I will take this board and the little chunk that got left behind. What is shipping going to be, remember it is Jake's birthday.

Guys - you should jump all over this lens. I have the 5.5" version that I took apart and split into two lenses (one is 7" and one is 12") and both work at portrait distances on the 8 x 10. Gives a great look to portraits. Not sure what coverage you will get with each half of this one, but for this price, how can you go wrong.

Thanks for the nice bump Dan. Looks like it's probably going to Canada. Just waiting to hear back from a guy after the shipping quote.

The BnJ board is spoke for. Shaky Jake gonna have a new board.

Lens arrived on Friday and it looks great. Can't wait to make some images with it. Tried leaving you some feedback with the new system here. Thanks Jim!
