Almost looks like Fed quality. Overly not bad, but lacking the gauzy  
blown effect of a Summar.
I'm sure you've seen these before, but they are worth another look.

I have another shot of the last one taken with a Nikon D80, if anyone
is interested in a comparison. By comparison I am thinking mainly of
b/w contra color, not the lens characteristics.
