While the cameras range from wonderful to breath-taking, the best part of the collection, naturally, was Stuart. He had a delightful sense of humor, and an incredible zest for life. Incidentally, the back cover of the 2010 LUG yearbook was photographed with one of his greater rarities: Leica #413, with the Leitz Anastigmat.

The collection is NOT for sale, nor will it be going up for sale anytime in the foreseeable future. Stuart?s son inherited his father?s collecting genes, and intends to not only preserve the collection intact but to add to it as well. I only hope his son runs a roll or two of film through the cameras, just for fun.
