Are we talking about the short fat tele-elmarit?

The 90/2.8 Elmarit was made in chrome up until mid 1968. I don't know 
what serial numbers this would include, but 1968 serial numbers run
from  2 254 401 through 2 312 750, so if it's before this range, it would
be  chrome, if after, it would be black.
