Up through the Postwar Automat, Type 3, the viewing lenses were all made by
Optisches Anstalt Saalfeld, aka OAS, a Zeiss subsidiary then (and again,
having passed some years as part of Docter Optics before Zeiss assumed
control). Since then, the taking lens' manufacturer always made the
viewing lens though lens replacements (say, of a damaged Xenotar by a
Planar) makes this rule a bit problematic.
