Hello,
I recently picked up an early 1950 BK Zorki Jupiter 12 lens.

Hello!

At first sight, the beauty ring seems good with the correct markings. OK with you about the barrel: not sure the markings are correct for the date. And a 1950 BK should certainly have a Zeiss number at the back, at least the LTM version of this lens has it...
