For the bookshelf of the Lugnut:
Yesterday, at a good used-book store which I frequent, the
proprietor showed me a copy of:
Wolff, "My First Ten Years with the Leica". It is translated
from the German, bears no date/copyright but probably publ. in the the
30s, c. 9x12" on fibrous paper (text)/coated paper (pix), in good shape
except the dust cover (but clear-plastic overwrap), $85 + 7% sales tax.
The prop. believes this collectible and is thus displaying it in
his glass case. I have no idea whether this is a classic Leica tome like
Benser's, but if anyone is interested, I'd be happy to act as 'agent'
(no fee, just postage), or, alternatively, put you in touch with the
bookseller.
Awhile ago, from the same seller, I bought "Champlin on Fine Grain",
1937, Camera Craft. An interesting period read, incl. his developer
formulas. If interested, make me an offer.
