Hi Corey -

I thought your name looked familiar and then remembered that I had just 
finished wrapping a slide carrier & Telyt lens cap to mail to you. There were 
two versions of the VUDFS desk viewer; the common one being Ivory & chrome but 
an advertisement in 1944 shows one in black (pg 315 of  the recent hard-cover 
& pg 98 of the small green Hove Accessory Guide by Dennis
Laney)

Anyone know where I can get some info about the Leica Desk Viewer that E.
Leitz NY sold in the '40s and '50s? I found a black one (most I have seen are
ivory colored). The viewing lens swivels to the side (why?). Anyone ever see
any literature (promotional) on this item.
