I wasn't expecting a surprise, but this one has me wondering.

It's not a early, early Vivitar lens, like a preset model -- but it's pretty old. It's a fixed mount, AUTO Vivitar -- so one of the early auto-diaphragm models. But "41" I can't find.

It's a 135mm f3.5, with a Canon bayonet mount -- and oddly enough has a M-A switch like many M42 lenses.

Anyone ever run across a "41" Vivitar????

I guess this lens was made before they started their numbering system.
