[Leica] LEICA MANUAL QUESTION

[alal at duke.poly.edu (A. Lal)]

The 1st and 15th (last) editions are worth more than $ 10.

I'd estimate  $ 50 + for  a copy of the 1st printing of the 1st edition & $ 
25+  for the 15th. As with all things Leica, condition determines the final 
price.

The 15th, with significant contributions from David Vestal,  Theo 
Kisselbach, Dick Pierce, Norman Rotschild, Norman Goldberg, et al,  by is, 
IMHO, the very best of the lot; it is more than merely a Leica manual. It 
should be on every 35mm user's bookshelf.
