What Chuck saw on ebay was probably a Steinheil 25 mm wide angle adaptor
for Realist, perhaps called a "telephoto" by a seller who didn't
understand the difference. 

I do think that telephoto can be a nice option for stereo such as
wildlife shots when one cannot get closer to the subject, but increased
lens separation (i.e. with a twin rig) would be necessary to get much
"depth" so it would not be a useful accessory for a Realist.
