Dallmeyer 3.b
$1,826.76

Dallmeyer 3B from Sweden. 281106771630 $1826.26.
OK - apart from the fact that the turning section at the rear doesn't turn. Lister said inner rear lens is stuck - bidders may have thought the cell/barrel thread was stuck. But his "inner" lens means the adjustment lens. Perhaps it can be loosened but rim damage can be seen.
Sorry about the duplicate note - but the more gracious member of the household returned before I posted!
Plasticca 600mm for $3,500 (BOBIN, 200925040844)
Wollensak Veritar 14" in barrel with flange for $570 (BOBIN, 151046537716)
There seem so many versions of the Dallmeyer 3B. Are you able to clarify the value by model? For example, the one I have is brass, in good condition and with flange, with rear soft focus adjustment (which is stuck) and a diaphragm rather than Waterhouse stops. I prefer to sell or trade it through the forum rather than ebay, but to do that I have to value it first.
These always bug me, empty lens barrels. Wouldn't be hard to pop some sort of achromat in them...
Spencer Port-Land 15-inch barrel, $123.50
Spencer Port-Land 11.5-inch barrel, $90.00
Tim, I've watched them for a while, and if they're in equal condition, all the Dallmeyer 3B's seem equal in value. Big fast high-quality Petzvals with a wonderful history never seem to go out of style...
