Subject: [Leica] What would a new M cost in 1964?

My guess is circa US$350 or so for an M3 and 50.  I bought an M3 and 50
mm Summicron in 1967 for a tad under US$400 if memory serves me well.
An M2 cost a bit less for the body and I haven't the vaguest memory of
what any of the 35s cost new in '64.

I'm wondering what a Leica M with 50mm f/2 and 35mm lens would have cost
new in
1964? Close is good.

Thanks!

Adam
