Bob Schwalberg worked for E.Leitx, Wetzlar for many years, doing PR and instruction books and product development. I believe Bob was in Wetzlar in the days of the MP. He did, at one time, own a few of the first ones produced. As far as silent cameras? Bob told me that the world's greated Leica repair person is Norman Goldberg in Wisc. Norman would take a Leica apart and put it together in such as way as to make it work smoother and quieter. I think Genius, was a word Bob used to describe Norman's Leica ability. Ed Meyers
