    Re: FW: Astra IIIB and prism
    From: Joel Jacobs
    Date: 2004 May 18, 01:28 -0400

    Jim Thompson was nice enough to send Cassens & Plath's catalog to the group
    last week.
    
    I'm almost certain they had a prism it, but it was for extending the arc.
    They still might be a possible source.
