Description: Here's a Nice Vintage ASTRAGON 8 1/4 inch f/4.5 View Camera Lens mounted on a 4 3/8 x 4 3/8 inch (homemade) wood board--- I think it could be be used for Early Graflex cameras or other Large Format View cameras. I've seen references for it linked to Yamasaki Optical--- and it's marked made in Japan. I think it's from the 1930's or thereabouts--- not too sure about much of that, but I expect you will know---- I'm no expert. It's in used but Super Nice Cosmetic Condition--- with Excellent Glass and Operational Condition. The exterior finish has pretty much No Wear to speak of--- No dents, No dings, or significant scratches--- barely any paint wear--- It's a Beauty! The glass is almost perfect---- Clean and Clear with No Fungus, Glue Separation or Haze to make a fuss over, with a just a few very minor dust specs. The aperture is working perfectly, BUT there is some oil on the blades, but the operation is smooth--- makes a perfect circle. Really Great Condition considering it's about 100 years old! Also includes the Front Cap. Continental US Shipping will be $11.50. It will be packed well and safe. International Shipping via the ebay program. PLEASE READ THIS--- By Buying this you also Agree with this: Reality check.... I am not Amazon or a professional Camera Store seller--- just a camera collector/shooter selling a surplus of Used items. I'm not here trying to rip anybody off or sneak one past you. But that said... I'm not into having things go back and forth based on Opinion, or risk "part swapping" either. So it's being sold As Is, No Warranty, No Buyer's Remorse, No Try-outs, No Returns... Sold As Is--- Used and Not 100% Perfect. If you don't want to accept that policy--- move on, please don't buy it! I try to be detailed and truthful but I can't describe every every millimeter of it, so there may be a nick or blemish or a couple specs of dust that I failed to mention... but they would hardly diminish it... unless you expect everything to be Perfect and Like New. It's Not Mint, so don't expect it to be, but it's pretty darn Nice for a Vintage, Used item that's about 75+ years-old. What you see is what you'll get and I package my items well, so it arrives in the same condition as shown.
