This is from a large collection of camerasand photography equipment owned by my father (b. 1908), a serious ...hobbyist photographer for many years. It may be an obscure lens; I canfind no information about it. Lens will need repair/servicing. Aperture and focus rings are frozen, they donot turn. Metal shows some pitting. Lens cap rim lining is missing, causing capto not fit properly (cap will fall off), and with lining glue residue shedding dust onto lens. Lens mount cap fits securely. No cloudiness, fungus, or scratching noticed to glass. Case is in generally excellent clean condition inside and out, but leather strap above clasp shows wear/fraying.
