Hello, I recently purchased this lens and its on its way to me, but I was wondering if any of you could help identify it. Like if it is a petzval or one of the other type of lenses. The only thing I know is not a Rapid Rectilinear because the two elements aren't equal, but Petzvals usually have the rack and pinion focus. It says "Rival, H. A. Hyatt, 6 1/2 x 8 1/2, St. Louis Mo, Sole Agent." Any help is much appreciated.
