This reluctant sale is for my trusty Leica Standard Model E Chrome camera body and an excellent Leitz Elmar 3.5cm f/3.5 wide angle lens. Camera serial number is 264825 so is from the last batch of 200 chrome bodies produced in 1937. The chrome work on the camera body is in what I would class as mint- / Exc+++ condition (just a few small bright marks to the back of the top plate). The top plate itself and the bottom plate are both in beautiful condition (just one slight scratch on top by the viewfinder), else it's all near pristine. All shutter speeds sound about right and fire every time. The viewfinder seems clean and clear. The vulcanite covering is in great shape and complete.

The shutter curtains appear to be sound. The fixed Elmar 3.5cm lens is also in great shape.

Lens serial number is 605929 so was manufactured in 1946. Really smooth focusing (mtr scale) and aperture selection. Blades seem clean and sound. Lenses appear clean and clear.

Comes with film take-up spool and black Leica lens cap (though this is a little damaged). All in all a great outfit for the Leica enthusiast / collector.
