Subject: [Leica] Removable lens head

I've got a 90mm Summicron from the 60's which I bought recently.
According to the Leica Pocket Book, at least some of this type where
made with removable lens heads, so that, with the appropriate adapter,
they could be fitted to the Visoflex system.

How do I know if that is true for my lens?  How do I remove the lens
head?

I also have a 50mm DR Summicron, but no bug-eyes.  Is the lens head
of this also removable?
