I will see if I can find it, believe it was American Photographer but I may be wrong. The only reason it struck me was that it was a Zeiss lens on a Leica body which I thought an odd combo. The reasons given as to why HCB did this was that the lens was faster at 1.5 than available Leica lenses, and allegedly less expensive. That's all I can recall.
