Wow! This issue is phenomenally good, with lots and lots of superlative articles, including a stunningly fine article by our own, and highly esteemed Erwin Puts on the development of the Summicron lens. Unfortunately, the issue is plagued with minor, but highly annoying, errors of fact but that is an artifact of the editor, MG Roy Moss, who simply will NOT have articles refereed, an unfortunate decision given his own substantial lacunae of knowledge. And there is the second part of a frivolous and almost ridiculous article on sharpness by Dick Gilcreast, who really does know better and who should be ashamed. Despite these drawbacks, the issue is most enjoyable, and those on this list who are not LHSA members are missing a real treat. JOIN!
