The University has David Douglas Duncan's Leicas and other camera stuff... However, and much more important, I have never received any sign that anyone ever found my Leica or even asked about it...Moreover, when my 18K Rolex was stolen at gunpoint years ago in Times Square, New York, Rolex said they had far too much work to do to look at stolen watch reports...In other words-- and solely in my opinion-- your camera is gone; ...end of story...All the stolen Leica reports already on file are gathering dust, wherever they may be... regards, bob cole In a message dated 12/17/2006 7:07:12 AM Eastern Standard Time, r.savenije@xs4all.nl writes: Dear all, After 20 years of using my leica Camera's and many years on the list it seems to be ended. Last week all my equipment was stolen from my house. Including a very early M3 I inherited from my grandfather. Is there anyplace on the internet where stolen equipment is listed? Or do you normaly post it on the newsgroup? Tanks Richard. _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group. See http://leica-users.org/mailman/listinfo/lug for more information
