Found a copy of the slower fixed aperture version of the ubiquitous 75mm machine imaging Rodenstock. First shot.

It doesn't look bad.
Were you on a tripod?

Tripod yes but it was windy. I think it has just a bit of motion blur. I also notice the jpgs just don't look as crisp on the site as the raw files do on my tablet.

Looks very good! I have a Magnogon (which is said to be similar) - that's also available in a version with variable aperture and one fixed at f/5.6. I think they were made for scanners. Do you knwo which device yours was used in?

It came in a Rodenstock enlarger style lens case and looks unused. The barrel is a one piece metal construction and the typical removable "lens group screwed in front and lens group screwed in back" construction is replaced with, I believe, each element having a niche machined into the barrel.
