not sure how to price this as it is rather rare. I believe it cost thousands new.. open to reasonable offers especially if it sits for a while 
very high quality optics 
It was designed to fit a Runco projector so you know it is well made, I added brackets to work with my Sony projector as shown. if you don't have a Runco you will need to figure out a way to position it in front of your lens 
 It is a vertical compression lens. . Using the built in function of the projector to take a wide screen 2.35:1 movie that is usually 800 horizontal lines, it is extrapolated to a full 1080 lines then this lens shrinks it back to the wide screen aspect ratio. The result is not only an increase in resolution but also contrast and brightness.. a significant  improvement.
The lens is universal. The bracket supplied with the lens is adjustable. It doesn't mount to the projector, it's designed to attach parallel to the base of the projector. This can be as simple as a plate or board attached to the base of the projector, bracket, or ceiling. 
 It is up to you to determine if it meets your specific needs and projector. I used it with a Sony HW40ES and it worked great. My new Sony 4K will not stretch 4K so selling. No returns unless not as described. Check out my extensive + feedback going back many years and buy with confidence.

Questions for the seller
Could you give me the measurements for the lens? I want to make sure it would fit my Runco CL 610.
box is 4" wide, 4" tall, 3.5" deep. With brackets it is about 8.25" between the slots. The opening that the projector light goes into is 3" wide by 1.5" tall. It is intended to be bolted to the projector, but if you use it like I did you just need to rig it so it is sitting in the proper position in front of the lens. The manual for your projector does mention using a lens like this but it does do the required vertical stretch. Manual for the lens is http://www.projectorcentral.com/pdf/projector_manual_3451.pdf
I meant to say your manual does not mention a lens like this
