Vivitar was especially proud of the 90 2.5 macro, the 70-150 w/matched
multiplier (marketing guys stated it was far better than the 75-150 Zuiko),
the 35-85 varifocal and the 50 2.8 macro. When I left Vivitar in '80 the
75-205 had just been introduced and was considered a jewel. Also, the 400
5.6 in the TX, NOT FIXED MOUNT, was considered to be a great lens (internal
focusing).
I just took at look at an old binder I have on photographic products. I
have the '75, '76P&B SIF on the OM line). I also have the OM-2 brochure
from Olympus. I might be talked out of them if someone is interested. All
are punched for 3 hole ring binder. These were my sales pieces I used for
dealer calls - they are used.

Hi Brian,
Velly funny.
