IIIa with brown leather case and 50, 35, and 90 lenses. IIIa SN # 26985x. Has not been adulterated with anything like flash synch or a self timer. Vulcanite perfect. Most importantly, Reinhold Mueller gave it a CLA and new curtains last year; all speeds work well and should continue to work for several more decades. Rangefinder bright and contrasty. Typical rubs on baseplate from case. One tiny pinprick ding on top cover which is not really noticeable. Brown leather case is in pretty good shape if you want to use it. All the lenses are uncoated for that authentic prewar look. 50 Summar. SN # 46677x. Some brass on the collapsing tube. A single tiny scratch on the fromt element but otherwise all optics is clear as a bell. 35 Elmar. SN 43945x. Clear optics. Outer ring has a slight bend that does not affect focusing or aperture control. Barrel is clean. 90 (black) Elmar. SN # 32076x. Optics are clean but barrel has brass on the focusing knurl and some of the DOF engravings have lost their paint. This is an outfit for the user, but cosmetically everything is adequately pretty. $645 + shipping. SM to bayonet adapters. Mint. Three; one each for 28/90, 50/75, and 35/135. Stephen Gandy made these. $80 including shipping to Canada and continental US. B+W 39mm filters. Light Yellow (021). Medium Yellow (022). Green (061). All mint with plastic cases. $50 includes shipping to Canada and continental US. Jonathan Lee
