One thing you should not miss while visiting Keeble & Shuchat, is Terry Shuchat's Leica collection. It's upstairs in the main store, in the darkroom equipment sales department. Three glass, two meter high, show cases and a corner piece house approximately 150 Leicas, starting with the very earliest (including what looks like a special UR copy.) Also there seems to be every conceivable accessory ever produced. Not being a collector, I really cannot comment as to what's there, but there is a LOT OF STUFF! Six or seven cubic meters of Leica history. And it's displayed very well. Terry is usually in the store every day, and being the really nice guy that he is, I'm sure he would answer any questions that you might have. Jim
