    Large format lens restoration anyone?

    Hello,

    My name is Stefan. I am from Austria. I am new to this forum.
    I just bought a beautiful Goerlitz Stella 8x10" studio camera from the 1920s. It came with an interesting lens that unfortunately is in bad condition. It is a Steinheil Muenchen/Munich Triplar-Anastigmat f3,8 with unknown focal length, diameter about 10cm/3,9" x 10cm / 3,9" overall length.
    The front mounting is broken, the mounting flange has a crack, the diaphragm blades are not working, the lenses show lots of dust (maybe fungus?).
    Does it make sense to repair such a lens? If so who repairs such lenses - preferably anyone in Europe?

    Thank you!

    Best regards, Stefan
