Picked up this lens quite a while back but just never had the time to test it out:
Brass GUNDLACH - MANHATTAN OPTICAL CO. ROCHESTER N.Y. WIDE ANGLE 11x14 with rotating stops.
Focal length looks to be about 195mm. f/stops marked 1 to 6, I calculate to be f/16 to f/128. Front elements about 340mm and rear elements about 380mm. Convertible lens? I'm guessing not.
My current go to WA lens for 11x14 is a 200mm f/6.5 TAYLOR-HOBSON Cooke Series VIIB Wide Angle Anastigmat. I think that it, for sure?, post-dates the 195mm Gundlach by maybe 50 years.?
Any info on this lens would be most appreciated...
