lens

I purchased for $1.00 a Kodak Anastigmat f7.7 lens with a serial #
38931. On the lens cap it has the #33. In my Kodak Data book dated 1943
it says that this lens is a 7 1/2" lens, yet when I compared it with my
Sch.210mm lens, the Kodak lens must be refocused about 2 1/2 inches
back. Can someone tell me about this lens. It covers my 4x5 with no
problem with pretty good movements.
