Not necessarily. m42 135mm f1.8s were manufactured by Sigma, Mitake,
and Tokina (at the very least) and sold under a variety of brand
names.
Still, I'd love to see pictures, as I've never before heard of a JC
Penney branded version.
I doubt if one would confuse the image quality of one of those with
the A* 135mm f1.8 or the Zeiss version (natch). Still, one could have
some fun!
I had a Sigma back in the film days that I bought at the Miami
International Camera
show back in the late 80's new old stock in the box. It was single
coated and was a flare
magnet and was bulky as hell on the front of my spotmatic without any
addtional
grip. Never used it much, sold it off in the late 90's with most of my
other none pentax
lenses.

I'm guessing that Don is being serious. I'd love to see some photos of
that lens, Don! Does it have a tripod foot on it? How many aperture
blades. Inquiring minds want to know!

I would sure sell my 135mm f1.8 JC Penny Pentax screw mount lens for less
than that. Although it does take some interesting photos on my micro 4/3
Oly. Thanks Darren for causing me to dig it out storage.
Are you joking or did jc penny actually sell a 135mm f1.8 lens???

We've all heard of LBA, but how about LBL? (Lens Bucket List - lenses
you want to own/try before you die).
If the A* 135mm f1.8 is on your LBL, there is one on eFlay now that
starts at about $750 less than KEH price:

If, after purchasing, you need the original and correct Pentax hard
case for that, ring me up.
