Default FA: Clean 135mm Graflex Optar in "stuck" Graphex Shutter

135mm f4.7 Graflex Optar in a (currently) non-working shutter

I could swear this shutter worked, but it's stuck now, and I can't
un-stick it. By "stuck," I mean the shutter is cocked but won't
release. It might be a minor issue; it might be serious -- I don't
know, and I don't want to send it out for repair, so bid accordingly.

The good news is that the glass on this Optar is clean and free of
scratches or scuffs. You could pop the cells into your working
shutter and have a nice lens. Or you could get a repair person to
look at un-sticking the shutter. Or the adventurous might try fixing
it themselves -- what have you got to lose?
