[Leica] Question 2 this evening: historical prices

[hopsternew at gmail.com (Geoff Hopkinson)]

Yes well the magazine editor and the article author have both passed on. I
shall ask the publishers of the current magazine.
The actual publishing company for the original magazine does still exist, I
have seen their premises in Frankfurt am Main. It is not the same people as
publish the current one.

Cheers
