I thought those with a more historical (not hysterical) bent my care to look 
at:

http://www.photographer.ru/show.htm?language=1&gallery=37&pic=8

where there is a 1920's portrait by the Russian photographer Rodchenko, and 
the sitter is using what looks like a Leica 1 with a collapsible Summicron on 
a tripod. This combination must have been very new at that date.
