Kodak's Ektra and Retina are the only ones which come immediately to
mind, they are from the 1940's, and I do not know how much of those
cameras were truly American, especially the lenses.


After all, it isn't surprising.  Any lot who would waste perfectly good
tea to make a political statement can't be expected to muster the kind of
respect for life's fineries that give rise to cameras such as Leicas ; )
