In it was a Bolex H 16 with film still in it and a bunch of Nikon F equipment. The owner (a photog from Vietnam) had forwarded the equipment from Saigon and then never showed up to pick it up. I always wondered what happened to him. The Larry Burrows story (above) reminds me of this experience - and yes there is a Leica connection which you will see on reading the article! Cheers, Howard Hong Kong. - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
