"Zeiss Compendium East and West 1940-1972"

Charles M. Barringer & Marc James Small

Hove Collectors Books - 1995

ISBN 1 874707 24 3

(Distributed in the USA by the Saunders Group)



In an email to me, Charles Barringer has suggested another book which
might meet Bud Cook's requirement. He writes:

"I could also recommend the Contax Collector's Checklist, available
through the LHSA to its members
(and maybe from the authors as well.) This is purely a catalogue
approach, without illustrations, but has the huge value of bringing
into a single work all the variations of each of the lenses, cameras,
and accessories. It does not include any of the SLR systems, and is,
as mentioned, not illustrated."
