Advertisement Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 Hi stratherb, Take a look here “The Leica Camera” report from 1946 by British intelligence. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Walt Calahan Posted February 20, 2010 Share #2 Posted February 20, 2010 It is significant that the British point out the "Pride in workmanship" factor that sets Leitz apart from many businesses and communities. Motivation to be the best is a necessary component of success. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wattsy Posted February 21, 2010 Share #4 Posted February 21, 2010 Yes, interesting - particularly the picture it paints of the austerity experienced in the post war period. Also interesting that the Americans were buying up 89% of the production at that time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 27, 2010 Share #5 Posted February 27, 2010 Thanks for posting the information.Facinating read.I worked for the German company Pfaff for about 25 years ( manufacture of sewing machines) They had a similar work attitude to quality and pride of workmanship.
