I also have the 1951 edition. :-) So now the challenge is to find a 1937 or the first edition, 1935. :-) On another shelf of Leica books I discovered the first new Leica Manual I'd purchased, the 15th edition, 1973 published by Morgan & Morgan . They certainly are a wealth of photography information and an interesting read due to then and now of what we've learned and experinced since the first edition was published. ted
