The following is for sale.  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.
