How about lenses from old tin and bakelite 127 Kodaks - they are ten  
for a penny and often single element meniscus lenses of dubious  
quality with a solid softness and violent vignetting. You'd have to  
make your own mount, of course. Remember, in that era, many folding  
cameras were the expensive, high end units from each manufacturer.
