Richard,

The Leitz change of Velostigmat to Raptar occurred in 1951.

Jerry


Maybe Leitz did that but Wollensak changed the trade name much earlier, as I said 1946 or 47. This was about coincident with Wollensak's introduction of vacuum lens coating and the Rapax shutter. I am pretty sure that all lenses branded Raptar are hard coated.
