So I've worked with a number of Kodak lenses and seen quite a few more- but never one marked like that.
By WWII they were using the trade name "Ektar" and "Aero-Ektar".
Also worth noting that the hyphen in "Hawk-Eye" slowly disappeared over time...
Welcome to the forum- and I hope you enjoy your new and rare lens!
