Yet Another Lens Catalog: the 1963 complete GOI lens catalog. That's 447 pages full of illustrations (big file) with lots of lenses you have never seen anywhere else before. With the full approval of the original owner of this file, I have posted it on my website to allow for faster downloading. Please visit Андрей's website for some explanations about this catalog and also some very interesting pages about Almaz cameras. Here's the link to the downloading page for the catalog (available in two flavors: PDF and DJVU):
