There you go. The lens is ... ???????? A nice longish (200mm-300mm) Tessar from the early 20th century would be a fun addition to your new toy. Make sure the image circle covers 4x5. Tessars don't have very large image circles.

That's what I figured you were shooting with... I bought a little, cheap 120 box camera in London for the USD equiv of $10 and popped a roll in it. It was fun to play with and gave some very vintage-looking photos!
