Image request: anyone got images from Wolly 19" lens?

[goamules]

If I saw a 12" Velostigmat in half, at about where the iris is, and add an extension tube of black PVC pipe, can I join the 19" club?

No, you have to stand outside with Jim. And I think it's going to rain.

Lightning threat? Flashflood warnings?? Anything going to get us in that door???

Sure, just show one of these to the bouncer, and you're in!

Okay, I'll take a pic as soon as I get home. I'm pretty sure it's not a 19 1/2.

Alright here we go. Pictures right. So what to do with this thing. Maybe I should look for pics with any 19" lens on an 8x10? Which is like a 450? 480?mm?

19"= 480mm. A slightly long lens for 8x10. I'll guess that yours will be quite sharp, if lower in contrast than a modern lens. i'll also guess that your lens was made for copying, and is likely a symmetrical air-spaced design like a Goerz Artar. Try a portrait with it?
