Hey Rich, congrats on your find. Went out on the
weekend with the better half to junkstores, ect.,
looking for treasure but found nothing photographic in
Fang catagory. Picked up a Lentar 35mm enlarger for
$1.99 at Goodwill, bulb even works, I have no use for
another enlarger but can pop off the lamp assembly and
it makes a nice copy stand, also bought a really mint
135 f3.5 silvernose at Dons Camera in OLympia last
week but at $50 w/tx not even close to Fang country.
Enjoy your new find, it don't happen often but is sooo
sweet when it does. your fellow Zuik, John Robison
