  Steve - I know those 3 lenses; they were on a tri-metric rig
similar to the one that Gary Powers had on his U2 intelligent
plane and the N. Koreans shot him down just to get them.
I think one shot straight down & the other 2 oblique and 
when used with the high-speed (ASA 10,000) infra-red film;
it turned night into daylight.
   Steve - those lenses are priceless and really belong in the 
Smithsonian - Why dont you just donate them & take a large
tax deduction.  Of course you must realize that the CIA will
be on your door-step in the morning, so do it now!
