I've got a lens identified as "Serie 1B No. 5 F=270m/m C.P. Goerz Berlin No. 129780 Doppel-Anastigmat Typ.B D.R.P No. 109283 ". Quite why it has two serial numbers I don't know. In fact I haven't been able to find out anything about it at all.
It needs to be pulled apart for cleaning, but the rear cell is stuck fast in the mounting and I want to know whether it is worth perservering with this. Part of the problem is that the rear cell is deeply shrouded by the barrel and it looks like I may need to cut the barrel away to get the cell.
I paid very little for the lens so I don't have a lot to lose, but don't want to waste my time if the lens is nothing special.
