In 1940 Gundlach coated lots of TRs. They were out shopped to
Wollansak for the coating. Heres a case that coating was pre war.

The coating I had done was a very deep blue.
I suppose I had around 70 sets of lenses done.

That might explain why I have a 4x5 Turner Reich convertible that has 
front and rear element single coating.  It is a fairly light blue 
coating, suffering slightly on the front element from some 
oxidisation but the rear is perfect.

This is the only Turner Reich that I have seen with coating - maybe 
Ken got to it :-)

Cheers,
