*Extremely RARE* Steinheil Cassar 25cm 250mm f/3.5 Portrait Lens for 5x7” 8x10”.

The lens appears to be an early single-coated version, covering 5x7” to 8x10” large format cameras, with an aperture range of f3.5-f36. It is an early large-aperture portrait lens featuring a 21-blade aperture design for beautiful bokeh. A Google search yielded no identical or similar lenses, indicating extreme rarity. It is likely produced between 1930 and 1940. The inscriptions on the lens barrel are faintly discernible as follows:
