A bit cheap for even then and certainly now. I printed a neg from it last night. Sacrilege on the LUG but there is no better deal in photograhy when you come upon most Rolleiflexes in the few hundred dollar range. You will often get better that Hasselblad quality with a camera quieter and some ways stealthier than a Leica. And a fraction of the total parts of a Hasselblad.
