Tara, All of the Frontier lenses are deep notched for glass and double strength. These were never used on capco. The non-dated repops were single strength.
This is why it's important to date repops.
Looking for anything from Hoosier Pete, Platolene 500 and Red Bird.

I definitely agree that all repops should be dated. And I know now (from reading this post) that these lenses were never used on capco. I was just saying that even if they were, it's obvious that that particular body is a repop, so even if I didn't know that they were never used on capco, I still would have been suspicious. Was that too many commas in one sentence? LOL.

Well he either sold it or took it off eBay because it was gone tonight. I had it on my watch list because as you all know Frontier is my main interest. Tara you were right that was a repop body. Mitch
