a relatively new Zeiss Tessar (made in Japan) 45mm, f/2.8 coated T* with a leather case – lot 121 in our auction on May 3rd
Toronto. The Zeiss lens configuration called “Tessar” has gone down in history like the famous Elmar 5cm f/3.5 lens from Leitz.
Lot 121 in our May 3rd spring Estate auction is a very recent Tessar complete with a leather case.
The lens mount on this Tessar is not apparent from the photo at left but may be recognized when the lens is viewed in person. While signed as Zeiss Tessar, the lens is made in Japan, not Jena, Germany suggesting it fits a Japanese camera.
Come out and enjoy the warm spring (hopefully) day. Free admission. Free parking. Friendly people. See the details and poster here.
