A beautiful and historic Schneider Componar lens, this early example dates to 1924.  It is constructed in a nickel focus helicoid that permits focusing and aperture adjustments.  The lens is in pristine condition, with no flaws.  I'm not sure what the aluminum board is for, but I will leave the lens assembly and flange mounted to it.  I welcome comments, which I will post.
