The image circle for that lens won't even cover full frame. How the hell can they sell it as a 250mm lens for 6x6? (The mount is obviously hacked on).
Something smells really fishy there.

We should start a club, where we pool our money and buy all of these super-exotic lenses and rotate them around between club members once per month.

Not really. The leaflet in question is not exhaustive.
To me it looks like a further development (??) of the Zoomatar 240/1.2, see here:

Ah, I see.
Jeebus, that 240/1,2 is a Godzilla
Well, if there is a 240/1,2 that can cover 6x7, then I guess there's no problem with a 180/1,3 covering 6x6
And yes, I would LOVE to try that on my 503CW for a day. I'll chip in $50
