      I found a copy of the 1954 U S camera in a used book store today and
would recommend it to any Leica user. It has a whole Chapter on Magnum
Photographers including Henri Cartier-Bresson and Robert Capa. Also the
chapter on European Photography including the work of Robert Frank and
Robert Doisneau is excellent. It was a time when the  photojournalist were
switching from Rolliflexs  to Leicas. I am going to try and identify the
cameras used and will report back. Bill     PS: I am a IIIF and M3 user
