Item Description

We are offering a large circa 1925-1928 Taylor and Hobson large format brass-era camera lens, as found and likely not complete. Looks to be missing the rear element, [would thread on as an adapter], but what is present is solid and fully operational. The center toggle adjusts the F-STOP/ allowed light, and it is solidly built with a smoothly operating concentric closure/aperture. Complete and restored, these lenses command several thousand dollars [I've seen upwards of $5000- for a clean complete example]. Not many of them around, so even the parts-pieces are likely worth a good amount. Being sold as is/ as found. Please refer to the photos for a condition report.

Condition

Consistent with age and use.
