It started with the corporate name change from Leitz to Leica and the relocation to Solms. Perhaps when they changed the "red dot" to Leica (from Leitz) they thought two Leica scripts would be overkill. Anyhow it did not last long and it is moderately uncommon. BTW this will only increase the camera's value if it is MIB thirty years from now.
