According to this site: <
http://www.luciolepri.it/lc2/marcocavina/articoli_fotografici/Zuiko_OM_85_1,4/00_pag.htm>,
50 of them went into production (we're talking the 85mm f/1.4 GRIN).

Guess the lucky owners won't give them away neither when their hands are
cold and dead!

Strangely enough, none of them surfaced on the 'bay in the last 10 years...
:)

In one of my latest post to this list I reported my results after a quick
search on the google patents base (www.google.com/patents) regarding Olympus
patents in the film photography area. Time to do a new search and see if
that 24-40 shows up somewhere...

I'll let you know if something interesting is in the air

Regards

Fabio
