Small company that disappeared after 1959, made a Leica copy (Tanack) for about a decade as well as some M39/Canon and obviously Nikon/Contax lenses.
Alternately it may not have made its lenses, but sourced them elsewhere.

I do not know much about Tanaka Kougaku, but
some wide angle lenses under the name of TANACK
is well known for its L-mount or fixed-lens camera.
A quick search by Google in Japanese publications
did not bring much information.

OK, thanks Guys
I think I will let it go
If it was special for some reason maybe it would be fun
I don't expect the auction will get a starting bid
Maybe it will be lower on re-listing |

Looks a lot like an early 135/2.8 Soligor I have, of about the same vintage probably.
Probably coincidence.
