Hey Guys, Wanted to see if you guys have seen this Hancock 13.5" lens, or how many you thought were out there. I has heard of a few guys having them way back when, but haven't seen many since. I was able to make a deal for one Hancock lens, as well as the Johnson, "Winged 70" lens. Happy to have it, and any help would be appreciated. John

Well, the Johnson lens appears as though it was made for capco and looking back thru the globe CD, I don't see where that lens was ever made for a capco body??

Both very rare and real...Johnson used capco inserts sometimes back into the 1930s like Phillips did. The Hancock, for capco too, I have seen maybe one or two others...Great find!!! Scott B.
