Bob,

Mea culpa,  my fingers don't follow my brain.  Roman numerals always
have baffled me (I failed Latin in junior High).

Bay Four is what we were discussing.  Bay Six is for the Rollei 6000
series SLRs.  A good friend of mine paid $410 for a Bay Four hood,
new old stock. An Asiatic buyer paid $475 for one. (all eBay prices)

Gee, I wonder what Bay Three caps and hoods are going for these
days?
