    Series II f4.5 15" serial number 123532 - a knuckler. Ha ha ha, £4k on european ebay - mind you, for that you get fungus on the front element thrown in for free...

    Not sure Cooke XIV is considered a portrait lens or not. But here is a 21 inch with serial number: 221625. I do like its look on my 16x20 ground glass.

    This one is already in the list (a 12 1/4" IIB, serial 201419) but it was the price that caught my eye - located in Argentina it is listed on ebay for EUR 290,000 - that's around GBP 260,000 or USD 328,000.

    Wow, these have really gone up in value! Just don't hit the 'Buy It Now' button...
