Trying to identify a lens

No company name, but a serial number that begins with "No TT" followed by 6 digits. Brass construction, but painted of course. "Anastigmat", "14 inch", and "f/5.6" is the only text on the bezel. Aperture ring goes to 16 and also includes "Patented". But nothing else. Here it is: http://www.flickr.com/photos/55001392@N08/5654951622/ You mentioned later you thought it was a Dallmeyer. I doubt it. If it were a "name brand" lens, don't you think the manufacturer's name would be prominently displayed? I think this is an old process lens due to the fact it only stops down to f16--you don't need lots of depth of field when photographing flat art-- and has no shutter. It probably came as a package lens, maybe, part of a set of lenses, with a process camera. No manufacturer's name is on the lens since the name was on the camera. I've seen this before with old process cameras. I doubt the camera maker made the lens. Most likely contracted it out. It would help if the lens element configuration and/or image circle were known. From your photo, it's appears uncoated. So, pre-1950 for sure. Since the barrel appears factory black finished . . . I'm going to guess, it's from the 1930s or 40s. It seems too "modern" to be older. Good luck in your search. Stef |
