Yep, I got a copy of the Leica Collectors Guide (2nd Edition) from my son :), just getting ready to go out to lunch with my daughter and her family.

 

Best wishes to all

Fathers' Day today?

Very :cool: !

 

Because in Germany it already was on June, second.

Father's Day - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

So collecting Leicas, that come from Gremany, you're all entiled to two goodies per year :) from your families.

Maybe they'll even accept, that the "Bollerwagen" tradition described is part of the Oscar Barnack heritage :D

We drove that day to a restaurant for lunch, where everybody came by car, not by Bollerwagen. So just as with birthdays, customs vary.

 

Best,

Simon

The very best virtue of Father's Day to me is that I never had children.

And if there were a Leica anniversary, I'd gold-plate a Holga.
