>I'm curious ... What SLRs came with Tessar lenses? 

There were several Tessars made at Jena for the Exakta, Praktica TM (40mm),
and M42 for miniature format, and Exakta 66 and Primarflex in MF.
Oberkochen made the Tessar for the Contaflex SLR cameras and for the Icarex
line.  Several Tessars were also made for the Contarex and its successors
- -- the Rollei QBM cameras and the Contax SLR system.
