Hello to all,
I am new here and I would like your help - recently I bought two old lenses and I found lots of information about one but not about other - i found some general info but not fot this exact lens - "Monar" F: 3,5 / G.Rodenstock Munchen - it is about 5 inches long (12,5 cm) and filter size is about 3 inch (7,5cm) - pictures attached - I found some similar lenses but not this exact one so if you have more info about model, year...etc. I would be grateful.

Also other one is Dallmeyer 3B - found lots of info about it but I was going trough this forum and saw sometimes there are fakes - what is best way to check is it a real thing?

P.S. - when I bought them they were dusty and dirty so I cleaned them with water, baking soda and lemon juice mix and oil them lighly with olive oil (found on net that is good for cleaning brass) - was that ok to do? - took me 2 days of rubbing with cloth but now they look much much better :)
Thank you!
