I have a leather strap marked "Leica" on my IIIc that is just your standard skinny 40s strap -- nothing special about it except if the camera were heavier it would cut into your shoulder rather painfully because it is so thin. You can find similar straps, just not marked Leica, on most 40s and 50s camera cases like Zeiss and so on. Usually they're in good shape if they weren't used much. I can't imagine they'd be hard to make -- a buckle or two, couple of rivets and half an hour's labor. but good luck with them. charlie trentelman In a message dated 7/24/0 12:07:38 AM, you wrote: >> >> I couple of weeks ago I received a prototype of the above for testing.
