PG Black nickel Posted October 30, 2024 Share #1  Posted October 30, 2024 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hello everyone, I have a pair of KOOBF cassettes engraved with a number (22 & 23) I had never noticed this particularity on all the cassettes I had observed. Is it possible that, at the request of photo-reporters, Leica engraved the cassettes with numbers in order to classify the films? Welcome, dear visitor!

M9reno Posted October 30, 2024 Share #2 Â Posted October 30, 2024 The engraving style with its serifs etc. looks third-party and nothing to do with Leitz. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would have used a local engraver. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
