For sale Leica CL, with Summicron-C 40 MM f.2 lens, 90 MM f 2.8
Tele-Elmarit, and accessories. $1300.00 firm

Leica CL serial #1046440, with Summicron-C 40 MM f.2 lens Serial #2705357
(Wetzlar) and Tele-Elmarit 90 MM f 2.8 Serial #2794001 (Midland). 1974-1989
³Thin ³ version.  The smallest and lightest 90 2.8 made for the M series, an
excellent travel lens.

I am the original owner and purchased the camera and 40 MM lens in June of
1976, and the 90 MM lens in January of 1978.  The camera has been a delight
and a joy to use, especially when traveling.

Full and complete provenience including original sales receipts, user
manual, warranty cards, boxes, repair records and correspondence and English
language sales literature included. Soft leather camera case, leather strap,
UV Filters, body cap and front and rear lens caps for all lenses.

Camera body shows some wear, but has been treated as the optical and
mechanical jewel it is.  Some scratches on the body above the rangefinder
window and film advance lever.  Also some wear at strap lugs. Mechanically
camera is in excellent condition. Meter and shutter function to factory
specifications.  Rangefinder is clear and sharp.

Both lenses are in excellent condition with no signs of wear or abuse.
Bodies and lens elements are utterly scratch-free.  Absolutely flawless
glass, always protected by UV filters.

All repairs have been performed by Leica factory service with the exception
of the most recent repair and cleaning performed by DAG Camera Repair
(Recommended by the Leica Historical Society of America) in July of 2000.
