I just bought a Speed Graphic off of Ebay, and, to my
annoyance, the aperature appears to be sticking, when
I decrease the aperature. When I increase the
aperature, the "leaves" don't appear to create a full
circle.

Is this normal as lenses age? Any tips or advice
about getting it serviced?

And, another newbie question, is my lens an
inseperable part of my shutter? I noticed that there
seems to be a a componant both in front of, and
behind the shutter. Is the "lens" the front part,
rear part, or comprised of both?
