Living here in Blair, NE-- where in eastern NE are you stomping around???? I had many fond memories of going into "snow's camera" in Fremont when I was in high school (I was the 'photo editor') and had a running school account that we could charge film and 'supplies' to. I can still remember looking longingly at the Nikons on the shelf, standing out with the 'red line'. I also, as a side, remember looking in the 'popular photography' mags while in study hall and seeing the name "leica" in the large store camera ads-- always followed by a "CALL FOR PRICES". I always thought, "what the hell? HOW MUCH COULD THEY BE?????". Now I know, but I was unwittingly brought into the Leica mystique at an early age by their beckoning!!! Great memories. Best of luck!
