While in Wetzlar, we were shown the Leica Archive. It contains
memorabilia from the entire history of the Leitz/Leica company. This
container included a Leitz monocular that went to the moon on an Apollo
mission. Also a wooden mock-up of the M3 made during its design phase.
And a prototype lens turret for screw mount Leicas. I got a special
thrill seeing that monocular.
