[edit] Summary

The old cover image of Rudolf Kingslake History of the Photographic Lens was unsharp and with distorted color. I made a sharper scan with accurate color rendering from my personal collection of this book, without any library stamp. It should only be used in wikipedia referring to the book in Rudolf Kingslake (fair use); do not copy it to commons.--User:Gisling
