Anyone know where I might be able to source two of these?
Many thanks!

If you want to buy old wollys, you might zap a query to the Surplus Shed www.surplusshed.com They have a bunch of stock from the old Wollensak warehouse.
Why use 6 letters when 3 will do?

That link is "out of order" at the moment... but this one still works:

Can I ask what you are going to do with two? Making a stereo camera? I bought one from Dagor77 and it had no flange and had some cleaning marks on the front. It wasn't very usable. Then, after a long time, I saw one on eBay that had a flange and was very cheap so I bought it thinking I would use the flange. The lens was clean so I have two. One I'll keep and the other is just sitting here without a flange and some cleaning marks. Dagor77 had several of them, he might have some left.

Wow, thanks forthe quick reply guys, I have emailed surplus shed, so see what they come back with.

condition is not so important - I only need the working iris and front lens to be reasonable - they are for the eyes of a Johnny 5 robot I am building with my son.

Many thanks,
Gary
