Hello !

I own that Leica hard case and I can't find any information about it... No doubt, made post war. It belongs to the M or R system ? 

Any information welcome ;)

 

Best, 

Jean

My feel is that is not for a M camera; and the insert that looks like the recepctacle for a lens , if is really for this, is not for a M lens (I'd say it's too wide) .  A case for  the first Leicaflex ? I think of first Leicaflex because I checked Leicaflex SL catalogs... apparently not one of the listed cases; also, the leather and inner velvet look early 1960 style,  I cannot say anymore... but regards the M or R destination, something could be infered also by exact dimensions...

- I haven't seen a M or SL case with his hinged part that opens to the front.

- All M or SL cases seem to have either a "Leitz" or "Leica" imprint, not both. The prewar hard cases for screwmount Leicas had the double imprint Leitz + Leica as on this one.

EMTOO case, for the viso 1 with either the 125 Hektor, 135 elmar or most commonly with the 200 telyt. Has spot for dual cable release and filters. i don't think they are particularly rare.
