[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I recently acquired a Leica I (Model A) with the 5cm f/2.5 Hektor. (THis is the fixed lens model made in 1930). While I do have some more recent Leica stuff that I use (M6, 35, 50, 90) as neat, and supposedly valuable, as this old one is, I have no desire to keep it. If someone knows where I could sell it for somewhere near its value, I would appreciate the information. (By the way the shutter works on all speeds, except 1/20 where the second curtain hangs up until the shutter button is released; the black paint is moderately brassed; the body covering is cracked but intact; there are no dents; the lens is clear, and the diaphragm clean and operable; it may have a replacement accessory shoe, as the one that is on it is chrome.) If you wnat any more info, or have any for me, please E-Mail me at CAMERASRME@aol.com or call me at (218)-736-5828 in Minnesota. Thanks, Cole Seaborn
