    H1 Archeology

    Edit: These are not for sale. I've reposted in the Technical Section.

    I was going through my H1 stuff and found a couple of diamonds in the rough. Two lenses were covered in dirt and old scotch tape. I cleaned them thoroughly and found two of these. (Please forgive the poor pictures - my limited skills as a photographer have been well documented here.)

    These are very early H1 lenses - note the different larger "prism" area as compared to the later ones. The number on the bottom on one is 1305 614 007 and the other is one I've never seen before: 1305 614 007 ..008. I think I'm going to mount them on these housings:

    which I think are probably about the same age as the lenses. I knew that some H1's had the small city lights, but I had never seen a pair before these. Seems like a nice fit to mate the lenses with the housings.

    I really love digging things out the dirt and finding them in great condition after all these years. H1 archeology.

    Cheers,
    John
