Product Description

This book is used in conjunction with The Leica Pocket Book and Leica Price Guide and has been compiled from original Leitz sources. The book has two aims: the first is to act as the constant pocket companion for the Leica Collector in his travels; the second is to help Leica enthusiasts who want to study fascinating accessories in greater depth. It covers the whole period from 1924 to Spring 1996 and will enable the reader to place an individual accessory in its historical context with contemporary Leica models and lenses. Readers wishing to study Leica accessories further and looking for a more suitable bedside companion are referred to the author’s Leica Collectors Guide which also includes comprehensive accounts of Leitz enlargers, projectors and binoculars.

Customer Reviews

Extremely Useful5
I spent two years picking up small items for the Leica Viso system and other traditional Leica items like adapters for filters on older lenses. This book was a tremendous aid. The informational content is brief and many but not all pictures are shown. Highly recommended. I also used the Dennis Laney book "Leica Collectors Guide".

Since no one book that I own has pictures of all items, having more than one book's reference on the same item, increased the possibility of finding a picture or comment. Leica has many old gadgets. The search can be as fun as the ownership.

For those who can afford it more complete books may be available. Try
"The Leica: A History Illustrating Every Model and Accessory" (Hardcover)by Paul-Henry Van Hasbroeck
and
"Leica Illustrated Guide III: M and Leicaflex Lenses, Special Models and Accessories" (Paperback) by James L. Lager.
