Subject: [Leica] Old M3. Yeah, But Krackenhause's Old M3!

According to Rogliatti...and I know how often Rogliatti makes
mistakes...the M-3 #700000 was a presentation camera given to Professor
Stephen Krackenhause in 1955.  Who would want to guess how owning
Krackenhause's very own Leica would increase it's desirability and
value!  By the way, M-3 #750000 was given to H.C.-B.

<<I read in a magazine today that an M3 (sn700000) sold for $112,100.
This

camera was the first M3 made and was purchased (via acution) by an
anonymous

"international private collector".>>
