I have an old Kodak Senior Six-16 with the Kodak Anastigmat
f/6.3 lens,
Kodex shutter. I have wondered what kind of pictures it
would take but with
616 film at 38 dollars a roll I guess I'll just keep on
wondering.

You can probably rig it with some ground glass but also
you could use sheet film, it would be inconvenient but would
allow you to see what sort of performance the camera has.
I've now forgotten what the Kodak Anastigmat is but think it
may be a four element air spaced lens of the sort called a
Dialyte. Kodak made lenses called "anastigmat" which were
dialytes, Tessars, and triplets. The Dyalite is capable of
very good performance but has narrow coverage, the famous
Goerz Apochromatic Artar and Dogmar lenses are Dialytes.
However, it may also be a Triplet. Kodak used f/6.3 Triplets
on some of its larger roll film cameras. A will designed
Triplet is capable of very good performance.
BTW, I also have an old Autographic but mine has a Bausch
& Lomb made Rapid-Rectilinear on it. B&L made these by the
tens of thousands for Kodak.
