http://www.surplusshed.com/pages/item/l3451.html for at least a little while. I inquired yesterday, they're sold out.
Anyway, I was just given one. It has a scratch on the rear element. OMIGOD WHAT A MONSTROSITY! I'm not sure that the back of it will even fit inside a 4x5 Speed Graphic body. It certainly won't fit inside the bellows. I can't begin to imagine what to do with it. Soooo big. Soooo useless.
Cheers,
Dan
