NORTHVALE, N.J., June 11 /PRNewswire/ -- A platinum-plated, calfskin 
leather Leica M6 camera bearing the engraved signature of world-famous 
Leica photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson was auctioned today at 
Christie's of South Kensington(U.K.) for 23,500 pounds (equivalent 
$15,525).

The last time I checked 23,500 British Pounds is more like $35,250 USD
(plus or minus).

Regards,
Bill
