P3D Re: Revere 33 and Wollensak 10 History

Ray M sez:

>The Wollensak 10 had the superior f2.7 'Tessar' type 4 element Wollensak
>Amaton lenses.

Can someone who really knows how to count lens reflections or who has had
one of these apart please confirm this?

Jess Powell also sez they are tessar-types, but we have also had reports on
this list that they are triplets. Wollensak normally labelled their
tessar-type lenses "Raptar" and not "Amaton," which contributes to the
confusion...

Thanks,

Eric G.
