Subject: [Leica] FS: 35/2 ASPH Summicron SM #11608

Leica lot has been sold except this one remaining item; I held back on
the 35/2 ASPH Summicron-M silver screw mount (M39) that I bought new
probably around 1999. Used it a just a few times, boxed ever since.
Near mint condition with box, front cap, rear cap, cards, etc. missing
only the lens hood. From what I understand the silver finish has brass
underneath instead of aluminum, adding weight and nice tactile feedback
(personal preference). This was the lens I first bought with the
thought "if I could have only one rangefinder lens." You know where it
goes from there.... ;) ? $2300 shipped US. Attempted to attach a pic -
if it doesn't come through, ask and I can send it. Tempted to buy an MP
body for this but that's $6K now plus film/processing time and costs...
I'm out :)
