Item Description
For sale is a nice copy of Vivitar Series 1 70-210mm f/3.5 (version 1) made by Kiron.
It is a very well known, highly rated lens, the earliest in the line of series 1. It has a constant 3.5 aperture and a macro mode 1:2,2.

and at
Vivitar 70-210 Series 1 Macro Zoom Lenses - Mark Roberts Photography
This lens has a manual focus and it does not have an "A" setting. The mount is M42.
Serial # is 22419449.
The lens is in great condition. The glass is immaculate, no fog, fungus, haze or scratches. Only minimal dust inside. Mechanics work great, focus is very smooth, aperture clicks as it is should, I do not notice any zoom creep at all.
Interiors are very good for its age, only minimal, almost unnoticeable brassing on the aperture ring.
The only reason that prevents me from rating the lens as being in excellent condition is that the previous owner made some tiny notches on the face plate, obviously to be able to take it off. They are so small that I noticed them only a couple of days ago. Otherwise the lens is in a great shape.
The lens comes with rear and front caps but the letters on the front cap (Vivitar Series 1) are a little scratched off.
