Enlarging lens experts

Found these at the flea market today..

What have I got.

Nippon Kogaku El-Nikkor f/2.8 50mm lens in it's front cap, bubble, and original box and guarantee card. Clean undamaged glass and looks as thought it has never been used.

Fuji Photo Optical Co. Fujinar-E f/4.5 7.5cm lens in its original damaged bubble. It too looks as though it has never been used with clean undamaged glass.

P&B Anastigmat f/4.5 150mm lens with minor cleaning marks.. Never heard of this one.

The EI Nikkor is a sweet lens for enlarging 35mm negs.

The Fujinar-E is for 6x6 medium format. I haven't used this one, but Fuji usually makes a competent lens.

The P&B Anastigmat is for 4x5 and I too haven't heard of the brand. Do you still shoot 4x5?

Sorry.. I should have worded my question different. I'm aware what focal length is what but are they worth selling on eBay and what should I expect on a sale?

 

[Pablito]

The Nikkor and Fuji are very good, but don't expect much when you sell them due to the general loss in value of almost anything related to film photography, especially darkroom stuff.

I'm thinking about keeping the Nikkor but selling the other 2 but I'm sure I can get my investment back on them..

In addition to the lens I got a Ednalite series VI 608 adapter with a couple of series VI hoods for my Summitar lens which is what I wanted in the first place..

I believe P&B is Ponder & Best, a former importer of a variety of gear (including Vivitar for example) but not manufacturers themselves. So this lens would be considered a "house brand", difficult to determine who actually made it, and probably not of high sale value.

That Nikkor has a fine reputation, and I expect the Fuji is about equally good... Good luck!
