Subject: [Leica] Focomat Enlarger Parts Wanted/Offered

Any users of the old Focomat IIc and Ic enlargers out there??
I am looking for a few accessories and have a few others to spare
for trade if need be.

Wanted for the Focomat IIc:

#17712 Insert to hold the double glass plate, used for printing
single negatives.

#17861 Supplementary setting gauge for 1:1 reproduction and
reductions.

#17881 Adapter for 6x6 cm plates in the glass negative holder

#17882 Adapter for 5x5 cm plates in the glass negative holder

Have these spares to offer for the IIc: 100mm V-Elmar Lens; Glass
negative carrier #17869; #17876 35mm carrier; wood easels with
clamping slots.

Wanted for the Ic:

The entire clamping mechanism that locks certain Leitz easels in
place on the baseboard.  It could be removed from your enlarger if
you do not need it.

Have to offer for the Ic: The entire perspective correcting
outfit.

I am very interested in contacting other users of the IIc enlarger
who have experience working with glass plate negatives up to
2.5x3.5".  In addition, extremely interested in meeting anybody
who has knowledge of the military version of the enlarger, known
as EN-121A, using a highly customized optical system, meant to be
the only way to exploit fully the negatives produced by the first
Apo taking lenses.  If you have any of the items sought but are
unwilling to part with them, even a photo or dimensions would be
of assistance.  

Kindly e-mail privately: Harry Haige, haige@compuserve.com
