I beleive it was made before 1954 when Schacht moved from München to Ulm.

When i cleaned and lubed it i found another name ring under this one written :
A. Schacht München Albinar ◊ 1:4,5/13,5cm Nr. 57360

The only info i found (LensCollectorsVadeMecum) led me to beleive the
Albinar name ring was used for export in the USA....

You can see traces of fungus on the lens pictures....

I'm no expert.... but i think it's a pretty good lold lens !

Did you use a hood ?
Most of these old lenses improve considerably with them, even the triplets.
