Stuff I'm not using, and I need to pay for CS4. Jpegs of everything on 
request.

IIIC - ser. # 428XXX, first year post war. As nearly mint as is possible. 
$350 (embarassing - posted too high a price last week before going back and 
looking at that receipts)
1/4" tripod; No pitting like on my sharkskin version from a couple of years 
later - built from old stock materials on-hand?

50/3.5 Elmar - ser # 640XXX, coated and scaled in feet; front cap. very 
clean, no separation, no fungus. $150
Came with the IIIC above, possibly mated at original sale as production 
dates are close.

Long snout case to fit IIIC, 1/4" tripod. virtually new, except for where 
the jerk I bought it from tagged it with two pieces of masking tape. ye 
gods. $20

Get the whole body/lens/case kit for $480

M3 SS, ser.# 957XXX, original instruction booklet. Excellent cosmetics 
except for MR marks on the top plate, some slight wear on Buddha ears. CRR 
Luton did a complete strip down CLA, and a re-cement of the VF elements to 
repair some bad separation. The quietest M I own, but I only shoot wide 
anymore. $850

DR Summicron, no eyes, front cap only, ser. # 1598519, although it has 
#1514763 on the front ring. Focal Point had it in Oct. '04 for a CLA, polish 
and recoat, but Jon had to cut out the original ring to disassemble. $300

Get the M3/Summi kit for $1050

Neveready case for IIIG,1/4" tripod, very very good condition $30

Canon LTM 50/1:8, ser. #306915, mint, with proper caps, Canon uva filter, 
and a spotless 3rd party square metal hood in crackle finish. The first 
post-Serenar version. Dante compares it the first rigid Summicron, if I 
recall. I kept trying to sell this to Jeffery. $250

NOOKY with instructions, shows wear $30

16 FILCA (LTM) reloadable cassettes, $10 apiece. If that seems high, send 
'em back and I'll refund - each comes with a Leica aluminum canister, each 
has the light-tight felt collar, and I've culled any that bind or stick.

Also, and these are possibly collectables, 2 Accura IXMOO type cassettes, 
new in the original boxes; never used. These puppies are SMOOTH. $18 each

And if you like Nikon, 3 cassettes, new, unused, and in the original boxes 
but no canisters; $18 each - of the sort for drop-back Nikons. I know they 
work in my F, so I presume they'd work in any of the S rangefinders.

500' of Agfa APX 100. It's been in my freezer since the month after Agfa 
died - Freestyle said it was the last batch they shipped. Expiration date 
7/2010. Paired with Rodinal, one of the true classics. $100

Roughly 70' roll of 17" wide Epson Enhanced Matte, in original packing. $25

email me offlist and be sure to leave 'LEICA' out of the subject line so I 
can easily sort it from the list volume.
