Everything is Leitz/Leica original unless otherwise identified as aftermarket brand: 135 f/2.8 Elmarit-M lens with eyes, sn: 2424xxx. ex+ w/mint glass, fabulous image maker, includes caps. $425. Leica Standard (E) Camera sn:322xxx (1939 vintage) ex++ or better condition. Vulcanite/leather all original and intact, no brassing, some light scuff marks on bottom plate. Quite remarkable condition for a camera this age. Functions 100%. The camera was described as mint- when I bought it a few years back, and some might even call it that in consideration of its age but I grade harder than others so will call it ex+. $650. Leica R3 camera, ex++ condition. Works exceptionally well. $275. 35mm f/3.5 Elmar (screwmount) chrome finish ex++ body, mint- glass sn:492xxx (same vintage as above Standard) $250. 50mm f/2 Summicron-R 2 cam lens. ex+ w/mint glass. Iris diaphragm seems to stick once in a while so it is sold as is. Includes caps and shade. $125. 50mm f/3.5 Elmar Red Scale (screwmount) sn:1202xxx mint-/ex+ (glass perfect) $395. 50mm f/1.5 Summarit screwmount ex++ Very light, almost unnoticeable cleaning marks in front element otherwise it would be an easy mint- (unless it is new in the box I don't think it can be called mint). Includes caps and skylight, yellow, & green original Leitz filters. $375. Original lens hood (XOONS) for above Summarit $125. Visoflex I screwmount with 5X vertical magnifier, ex+/mint- truly a beauty. $125. DeMornay Budd reflex housing for Leica rangefinder with 50mm Summar or Summitar. See page 62 of Marc James Small's book _Non-Leitz LEICA Thread-Mount Lenses_ for a photo of this incredibly well built waist level finder. They are rare/difficult to find because not all that many were made (they were over engineered and over built). This one is in mint-/ex+ condition with original fitted leather case. $75. DEOOC "Chico" Flashgun w/CVOOK connection cable and DHMOO box for the outfit ex+ $20. Leather ever-ready camera cases for Leica II though IIIa in ex+ condition, all stitching intact and leather looks nice but old. Strap shows some surface cracking but not bad. Overall it is in quite nice condition. $30. All items are plus shipping, usually $1 to $3 in the US (except cameras and lenses due to higher insurance cost). Shipping cost outside the US will be higher. Trades for Leica R stuff (lenses) considered.
