A fortune, if it included all forty lenses shown. :^)

Well, the kit would have included the camera with 2 pairs of lenses (I think
the lenses have 2 elements - I've only really handled one of the front
elements from Paul Wing's camera, but I'm sure there were elements behind the
shutter...
It also had 3 viewers tastefully arranged around a lamp - which was claimed
to double as a table lamp! Anyway, each viewer had either 2 or 4 lens
elements (I've seen suggestions that the viewer lenses were the same as the
camera, but I'm not sure that would work...) So that's another 12 lens
elements potentially.
Pity that image from "Perspective" doesn't show the viewer. We might have
been able to guess where the various elements were used in the setup.
The ones in the left or right rows look like the camera front elements to
me...
