I was fortunate to have met & talked to Sal at a few Philly camera shows. I got invaluable advice on Leica lenses & was amused at his White House & other stories. I still have the Quick Load kit he sold me for my M2 & shortly after receiving it in the mail Sal passed away. Just keeping it in my collection as a fond rememberance of Sal.
