Jean-Claude's photo does NOT illustrate a FULDY, but the first version of the "German" OOZAB, dear old man from the mid-thirties (I am from 1934...).

As far as I know, the sliding focusing stages were first developed at Ernst Leitz New York in 1930, with three known FULDY versions, followed by the longer base FULEC in 1948 and a special COPIN version with calibrated clear glass strip in the focusing screen (I used to have one in my Fontenelle collection).

The "German" version OOZAB was comercialized from 1938 and exists in several versions, including one for the Leica IIIg and the GRBOO for the Leica 250, and was available until 1957.

I look for a photo of my COPIN to publish it here one of these days.

Leically yours.

The other old man.
