It was a wonderful collection - including a copy of "Living Leica" with a presentation page thank you to him by Ernst Leitz III. Also a number of other rarely seen Leica history books (published in Wetzlar), etc. Almost all of these have since been sold and, perhaps, have ended up in bookstores. In total there were about 100 Leica books involved. The auction was a great deal of fun and it was an honor participating in it. - Jay Deutsch
