Thanks folks, I won't have time today, but I'll post what I find. Thanks Gordon for the file, very kind. These were burned with carbons, maybe that saved 'em a bit, should be okay for personal use, and when I hit the "big time", they'll be cool, 50 year old paperweights!

Excuse me for being dumb, but where is the focal length of a lens indicated OR how do I measure that? What is the difference between measuring a scope and flat lens? Thanks.

It is stamped or engraved the 4.75" is the focal length of your scope from what you posted
The flat will be marked somewhere on it

Revised inventory:

Scope lenses: Kollmorgen Optical BX 241, f:1.9 4.75in. E.F. with B&L CinemaScope Projector Attachment I (double the 4.75?)

Flat lenses: Baush&Lomb Super Cinephor
E.F. 3.50in (88.9mm) f/1.8

Both sets unfortunately the red rings, but great for learning I guess.

(GTS lenses, he says ! Those are the damn "holders" or whatever to hold them in the front of the projector! !)
