Jem,

My No. 1, Vol.1 of Leica Photography is dated Spring 1948.  It was a quarterly magazine that cost 25 cents an issue but was sent free to all
registered Leica camera owners residing within the United States and US Territorial Possessions.  Subscription rates for non-owners of Leica cameras
in the US was $1.00 per year.  If you lived elsewhere, it was $2.00 per year whether you owned a Leica or not.

Good Luck,
Rob McElroy
