I believe there are some list members with the 8/2.8 (Denton, maybe?). The 
20/3.5 and 38/3.5 were the predecessors to the current 20/2.0 and 38/2.8. 
They did not mount directly on the body, but instead needed some sort of 
adapter. I think they were really more like microscope objectives, at least 
in their physical configuration (perhaps optically, too?). The 1000/11 is 
pretty rare, I think. It would be interesting to see how that one works with 
the OM-1 shutter shudder!
