Hoping to find some info about my Wolley...
An 8.25 (210mm) 4.5 WolCoated Raptor in Alphax shutter...
No Series information is present. Most Raptors are a Series III, IV, or V...
Being a 4.5 I would assume Tessar Type but I would really like to find out...
It is not the process lens or an enlarger lens that the internet talks volumes about...
It comes in a Wollensak presentation box and a little detective work reveals under the velvet base a clip of newsprint advertising the Star-Chief Catalina a model made in 1959-60. So I would date the box and lens to around that time...
Any more info would be appreciated... Thanks
