That guy who was poking around last week, looking for a 150 Xenotar, might poop his pants now:

No mention of focal length, duh...
This is the fastest 150mm lens I have ever seen that will cover 4x5 film. It's crazy fast and very rare. So, what you can do with it ? It's up to your creative genius! The glass has some small bubble but I believe will not effect the image. Other then that this lens is in good condition. You would have to make a customer mount. This lens does not have a shutter. SK Grimes are experts is making mounts and shutters. Maybe they would be the ones. I think I paid about 2k for this lens on e-bay a few years ago...I was hoping to use it for some project with my 8x10 but it will not cover that film format.
