That's a Kodak 25/0.95 lens!! I never knew such a lens existed from Kodak, though it seems to have Angenieux glass... if anything, it's an interesting curiosity. I hope that whoever buys it will post some samples from it

Great lens, although its not really a Kodak.
This lens was fully manufactured in France by Angenieux, with Angenieux glass and even Kodak name was engraved by Angenieux.
They were also shipped to USA in red Angenieux boxes, but upon receipt repackaged by Kodak in yellow Kodak boxes.
These lenses were made for Kodak pro cine camera, which they only manufactured 6000 pieces of before dropping it. (which explains why these lenses are fairly uncommon)
But they are exactly the same copy of Angenieux line up, in different housing. When tested side by side I see no difference between them, (with slight/unnoticeable coverage advantage going to kodak lens, probably due to different mounting, e.g. less narrow)
