Hi lens experts. I just got a 13" petzval that I'm sorta excited about. I'm excited because it was a radial drive, now missing. There are no marks. As you can see, the hood is fairly long. I say "sorta" excited, because the glass needs about 50 years of cleaning, but I can tell the rear is cross threaded. Both front and rear are stuck hard, but I've got them apart before.
Other than Harrison, Holmes, Booth & Haydens, and Palmer and Longking, does anyone know other makers that used radial drives? I also saw one Voigtlander that way, believe it or not.
