I have a japanese screw mount 35mm f 3.5 with screw in hood and finder, a very sharp lens. Marked Acall and Kyoei. I need help with a value.

the acall and "super acall" lenses from the kyoei optical co. are quite good, especially the 135, 3.5. the latter can sell for $300- $400. the 35mm is less desirable, especially in non-"super" form (coating issue), and sells for about $100 or so up to $200-$250 with all the accessories you list in mint condition.
