Re: RE: [APML] Four Schmidt Shooters

Steve,

 I was under the impression that Vehrenberg had two 14". The person selling them had two units, I bought one, the first one. Later on I heard another individual bought the other one. I was told I could pick one from both the units but I certainly could not tell the difference. Now what I do not know is which unit was used by Vehrenberg for his atlas, maybe he used both or just one of the two. 
 BTW, I am considering selling it as this project will require quite a lot of work to get going. One will have to get it focused perfectly. Contact me privately if you're interested. It comes with two 35mm film holders and two medium format film holders.
