First, neither Leica nor Leitz has ever had a glass-making facility, though Leitz once had a glass laboratory. Second, there was no "Voigtländer" Press Conference at Photokina. There might have been a Cosina Press Conference (I was not in attendance), but it would be impossible for a company 35 years in the grave to have a press conference. Heavens, maybe this was a time-warp Photokina? Was there a Ciroflex Press Conference or a Zeiss Ikon Press Conference? Marc msmall@roanoke.infi.net FAX: +540/343-7315 Cha robh bas fir gun ghras fir!
