Subject: [Leica] An extraordinary collection of 40's Leica images
From: chandos at cox.net (Chandos Michael Brown)

Someone in the Photonet Leica forum posted a link to the following site:

http://politiken.dk/VisArtikel.asp?PageID=375480&nr=1

Evidently these are images exposed in Copenhagen during the war years,
but only recently processed and scanned.

The discussion here:

http://www.leica-camera.com/discus_e/messages/2/135679.html?1117037412

suggests that all of these images were made with a Barnack Leica and a
50mm lens.  

In the event, whether he made them with a IIIc or a No. 1 Kodak Pocket
Special doesn't matter.  He was one hell of a photographer.  I urge all
of you to have a look at these; simply amazing!
