Ah!!  My first camera.  I sold all by college books when I graduated in
1950 and bought a Retina 1.  Had it for years.  Wish I still had it.  We
are still looking at Kodachromes we took with it when we were first married
and had children.  Lots of fun - no rangefinder, no exposure meter
(couldn't afford one) - still most of the shots came out.  Perfect pocket
camera.
