FS Friday:

=======================================================
Black repainted Leica IIIg, asking $575, free shipping to Canada / USA, 
$55 shipping outside of North America.

The chrome was stripped off with muriatic acid, but the nickel plate was 
left intact.  The paint is a baked-on enamel.  The paint does show some 
wear, but in the attractive way that black paint wears. The covering is 
Levant Black leather from www.cameraleather.com 
<http://www.cameraleather.com>.

The camera works fine, with good shutter speeds, rangefinder clarity and 
alignment and smooth film advance.


=======================================================
Canadian dual stroke M3  that was made in the Midland Canada plant.
It has the large letters "M3" designating a Canadian camera.

There are some marks on the top chrome and bottom baseplate, from usage. 
There are lug marks but quite faint. It has the original vulcanite which 
is in fantastic condition.

The camera works fine, with good shutter speeds, rangefinder clarity and 
alignment and smooth film advance. The shutter curtains are supple and 
light tight.

Asking $600, free shipping to Canada / USA, $55 shipping outside of 
North America.
