Cine-Kodak Special U.S. Defense Dept. Black W/ 4 Lenses, Reflex Scope & Carrying Case. Shipped with FedEx Ground or FedEx Home Delivery. This camera has serial No. 6751D, so could the "D" designate made for Defense Department? The whole set is in beautiful condition and looks so little used that it might have been used by an officer rather than one of their regular photographers. Camera runs very smoothly and quietly, the quietest one of my collection. This equipment may not have been used in the last 70 years.25mm f1.9 lens has good focus and diaphragm adjustments.
102mm f2.7 lens focus stuck and diaphragm turns
63mm f2.7 lens aperture works but focus stuck
15mm f2.7 lens both aperture and focus stuck
All glass looks good. I have other of these Cine-Kodak lenses that were stuck that I was able to free up with naphtha and then a little synthetic oil. See diagrams of lens to find where to put it. Better than 50% success with this treatment, but I have to use a tool to grip in order to turn the collars, so I was afraid I might damage the paint on these black lenses, since the buyer will most likely use them for display anyway.
