Wayne .......... I have an infrequently used MC 28mm / f2.8 Zuiko complete
with OM metal hood hood, original back and front caps, and leather case you
are welcome to take. The front and rear lenses are in excellent shape and
there does not appear to be any problem with the inner workings. And I could
deliver it right to your front door!
