Iris Problem in Kodak no. 33 Anastigmat 7.5-inch f/4.5 lens

[Paul Kinzer]

Thanks for the offer, Randy. But I guess I must not have been clear in my last post. I was able to remove both cells from the defective lens barrel and screw them into the other one that I have, which has a diaphragm that works just fine. So I was able to put together one lens with a working iris and near perfect glass for use on my camera, and another with bad glass and a non-functional iris, which will become a paperweight. For almost no money; always a plus!

Oh, you were perfectly clear - problem is, I didn't completely read your last post until after I responded to an earlier post I am to stupid to live.
Enjoy your lens and post some pics once you shoot some.

Will do!

And you're a mighty hard judge of yourself!
