I have here on my disk:
  * a TIFFEN 801 RETAINER RING MADE IN U.S.A.
  * a ring with just the tiniest bit larger outside diameter,
    *apparently* the same threads -- either one can screw into the other --
    but no markings whatshoever.

They came in two boxes:
  * TIFFEN Lens Accessory 801 RETAINING RING
  * TIFFEN adapter ring 57 SS-8

The first ring and the first box seem to match each other.
I have no idea about the second box and the second ring.

Does anyone have any idea what these are, or are supposed to do?

Thanks,
