Here for you a fine Cooke anastigmat WW1 era, the 4x5 series II with a 6.6" focal length and f/4/5 max aperture with the renowned Cooke Triplet layout. The shorter focal length series II for press work and the longer focal lengths for Portraits (with soft focus adjustments). This lens falls in shorter focal lengths but an excellent choice for your speed graphic, with that Cooke look of excellent sharpness and fine Bokeh. Of course fine results can also be had stopped down, a flexible lens covering 4x5.
For that Cooke triplet mojo with Beauty, Power and Endurance for your landscapes or even nudes.
Condition
The brass barrel shows some loss of finish and patina build up and age, the inscription and aperture scale is hard to read, the aperture index dots have been cleaned (fiberglass pen) so count the dots on stopping down, the apertures are smooth and run from f/4.5 to f/32 and are well rounded. The glass is excellent with no fungus or scratches, with light cleaning marks to the front & rear element, some natural coating and micro bubbles and the possibility of dust. Sorry no caps but the elements will be protected when shipped with care and experience. Sorry no flange but the threads are 50mm in diameter.
