Extremely rare 2nd version of the Zori BK 2.8/3.5cm (for Biogon Kransogorsk), partially assembled with genuine Carl Zeiss parts and produced between 1949 and 1950, considered an ancestor of the Jupiter-12, this exact lens no.4902114 is the earliest example known! It remains in almost mint condition, optics in very good shape, only showing a few light cleaning marks, rear lens free from scratches (which is remarkable given how exposed and vulnerable it is!), together with rear cap and bakelite keeper (cond. B+).
