It looks like one of the elements in the taking lens has been placed in backwards.
I think it is three elements
Did you remove the lenses for cleaning? Looks like the viewing lens and the taking lens are out of sync. Easy check is to tape a hunk of wax paper where the film would be, point the camera at a bright lamp 4 to 6 ft away then focus a sharpish image on the paper. Should match the viewer image, if not adjustments are in order. Mirror could be not seated properly too.
That's what I'm asking? What do you think? Viewing the images?Well, DID you put the mirror in backward?
Dang how hard would it be to fix?Home now looking at the image on my computer screen, larger than phone. Think Dennis has a good point, looks like a reversed lens element.
Any idea or website to fix it?It looks like one of the elements in the taking lens has been placed in backwards.

I have micro Japan screw drivers and some items from cleaning vintage lenses but i'll have to read more on it, may give my local camera shop a call thoYou need tools.
I have not had one of these cameras so I do not have any specific guidance ... but looking at stuff on the net you will need a spanner wrench to work on the rear element. The front element will require some more work to get into it.
If you are not comfortable taking cameras/lenses apart ... then this will not be an easy thing ... especially if you do not have any micro screw drivers.
