I was just informed by Doug Kerr that my "12 in. (305mm) F:6.3 CARL.MEYER.ANASTIGMAT..No OU-471" is named after George Drucker of the Burke & James Company wives gynecologist.

Here is a link to the info: Burke & James History (http://www.xs4all.nl/~lommen9/Burke/page2.html)

I will post photos of the lens if requested.


Any other weird name origins?
