I would have asked.  I have a bunch of Leitz 
Never-Ready Cases but I've never paid a dime for 
any of them:  folks just give them to me out of 
frustration, I guess.  The IIIcK military cameras 
were supplied without a case of any 
kind.  Perhaps this is a factory prototype of 
some sort?  Leitz NRC's are normally cow-leather brown.
