F.Jarret Anastigmat Gallos Foyer - help with identification

[renes]

VM says nothing about F.Jarret Anastigmat Gallos Foyer lens. Anyone knows what formula is this anastigmat? Tessar or Dagor patent?

[Steven Tribe]

I couldn't find anything - apart from a lens with this description being listed on French E**y some time ago. I don't think it was sold but the listing is no longer available.

If you have the lens in your possession, you can get a good idea of its design by counting reflections of a single, small light source in the front and rear groups. Bright reflections are air/glass surfaces. Dim reflections are cemented surfaces.

Foyer means focal length, it is an 80 mm lens.

Gallos is the lens type's name.

Yes, it is that lens, I thought to buy it for my 6x9 but could not find any info about the maker and what formula this lens is.

Thanks, I will ask the seller to check it.
