I got my hands on their Special Edouard Boubat Edition. (Boubat died on 30 June this year). A very nice 68-page magazine with only one page of advertising (Delta 3200), and still lower priced that their regular issues. Most pictures were made using a Leica (and there are a lot of pictures of Leicas too in the auto portrait section!). You MUST get a copy if you are into b+.w. And then please explain to me how it comes Boubat keeps what seems to be the finger pressing the release on the wrong side of the top plate in the photos where the camera is held vertically. I do understand that left and right are the wrong way round in mirror pictures, but that is not the point here, after all the guy is not standing on his head, at least not in the picture on page 47!
