So looking through my lens collection for 30mm retaining ring I come across a similar vintage to the Compur shutter with the same threads so I took the retaining ring to make samples with the Tessar 120mm recently purchased. I find a Balda labeled Compur, it is one of their Art Deco models with a 105mm Radionar. What if I took the back cell of the Schneider and installed it with the front cell of the Tessar? Photos with a distinct glow!

It's a dreamy season! Great experiment and nice result which must look suggestive in sepia too.
