hmm.. i went to tom abrahamsson's Web site :

<http://www.rapidwinder.com/ >


and guess what? there is *black tape* on all of his leicas pictured 
on his site...Mr. Abrahamsson himself is pictured there using an M6 
with black tape...





<<Why doesn't someone ask Tom Abrahamsson and Ted Grant what kind of tape
they put on their Leicas. Together, Tom and Ted have traveled to more
places, taken more photographs, with multiple Leicas hanging around their
necks, than most of the rest of the LUG combined. Ask them how many times
people recognize their Leicas and how many times they have been accosted by
someone wanting to steal "a Leica." I can answer this. No tape, ever. And
probably no Leica related accosting.>>
