Cheers Geoff http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/e http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/gh/ -----Original Message----- Subject: [Leica] Auctioning off the first production Leica M8 Hi Luggers, I follow the Westlicht auctions sponsored by the Leica shop in Vienna (from which I bought my first M8 when they had a sales show in Hong Kong) and was surprised to see that Leica is selling the first production M8. No sentimental ties in Solms for the camera. I wonder if Mr. Kaufmann is selling it to raise (a little) cash. Cheers Howard Here's the message from Peter Coeln: Dear Friend of Photographica, WestLicht Photographica Auction is pleased to announce that online bidding for our coming auction on Saturday, June 7th 2008 is available now at www.westlicht-auction.com.

Last second offer Just shortly after this catalogue went to print Leica Camera AG asked us to auction the first Leica M8 - an unique opportunity we could not let pass.
