The Ultimate Asahi Pentax Screw Mount Guide
by Grejan van Oosten
is the only complete source of optical diagrams and covers lenses from 1952 to 1977. It is a lot of fun following the design path for various lenses.

Later lenses are covered in Boz's Welcome to Bojidar Dimitrov's Pentax K-Mount Page K mount site.

For books, check here for authors Van Oosten and Cecchi.

Cecchi gives a good overall view and Van Oosten a closer look at the lenses. Another good place for checking M42 lenses is:

I hope Nigel brings the site back or allows someone else to host it. He started the project in 2004 and I submitted all 52 of my Takumar's data - including a 83mm f1.9 (m42).

Unfortunately, Nigel's m-fortytwo site is no longer available. It listed all the lenses and serial numbers as supplied by users.

Google still show it at:
