Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the most prized and collected Leicas those with utilitarian origins, rather than the commemoratives? Short supply, flawed or somewhat unique in production, possibly eschewed by the targeted buyers; aren't these the endearing attributes for collecting? - -- Roger, List-Owner The LEG (Leica Enthusiasts Mailing List) http://www.topica.com/lists/leica
