I have attached photos of the lens which is a Taylor Hobson ortal complete with "sticky tape". The company was well known for TV and cine lenses.

On the subject of "beasties", there is an old World War 2 brass housed bomb sight eyepiece in the box. It is the biggest eyepiece I have seen and weighs 2.2kg. It has an enormous field and eye relief but absorbs some light and is about 30-40mm. You know, it is easy to collect junk over the years.
Would be interested if anyone has used one of these. I am planning to mount it on my new dob. Perhaps I should ask on a new thread.
Best
