Does anyone know anything about these lenses that I acquired? They were described as Kollmorge Optical Projection Lenses 3.5 and 4.5 inches, f/1.9

Kollmorgen is an optical company based in Northampton, MA. It manufactures optics for submersible vehicles. At one time it made process and projection lenses as well.

Thanks, Toyon...I'll have to play around with these (I haven't). We'll see how much of an image circle I can get. Maybe good for 6x7?

That's cool, Dan. The three of these kind of fell into my possession. I'll have to play around with them. If they are of any use, I will keep one of them and offer the others.
