Additonally, the order of an us judge (or jury) existed, who didn't allow a
camera in court which was louder than a viewfinder Leica. Leitz even
published an ad with this information in some German photo mags and in "Leica
Fotograie" (in the late 60ies or early 70ies). Sorry for the inaccuracy, but
the old mags are somewhere in my cellar.
