Subject: [Leica] Help with a M5 Dead in its Gears
From: Paul Nelson <lawnelson@att.net>

My trusty M5 (acquired in 1976) failed me.  The film advance lever felt
like the gears were not meshing.  Finally the lever froze.  The camera
is a no go.
I expect Sherry should be contacted but I thought you people might
prescribe a simple remedy.  (Please, no black tape).
Thanks,
Paul in Southern Connecticut, USA
