There are two on the block right now, 170016628286 and 330015245290
There was another one selling just a week ago (330011080616) for US 920.

Wonder where they all come from, they are pretty rare.

Yes, exactly. Seeing 3 in a matter of weeks is a surprise. I believe Dougg has one of these by the way.

IIRC, Nick brought one the last time we all met at 'It's Only Natural."

If I was stupid rich, I'll bet that would be a fun lens to combine with the CL's 40mm frame lines... ;) I put that in the watch list; I'm curious to see what it goes for in the end.

I had noticed that when searching for "Pentax Limited" to see what would come up. I'll watch it to see what it goes for. Ralph you have an amazing memory... :) I got mine from another (brief) Canadian RFF member for $500. I've used it on my CLE and M2 and it's a great lens. Had to pay more attention to framing, as the focal length is a bit longer in actuality than the 40 Rokkor. It's a very crisp contrasty lens.

Doug: What a nice lens. That portrait of the woman looks so real, so lifelike!
