About This Book
The Leica Collectors Guide is the most comprehensive reference book that has ever been produced for the Leica collector, modern Leica user, and as a dealer reference.
Dennis Laney has brought together for the first time all possible Leica information relating to cameras, lenses, the multitude of accessories, binoculars, projectors and enlargers. The last three items have never been classified and published in a Leica enthusiast's book before. The author has covered the period from the very earliest days of Leica production right up to the present. For these reasons the Leica Collectors Guide provides a framework for extending the collecting field into other, so far neglected, Leica products as well as detailing the more difficult-to-obtain Leica cameras, lenses, and other items.
Introductory chapters tell the story of the Leitz company, the crises and need for capital which finally led to the withdrawal of the Leitz family, the establishment of the Leica Camera Group within the world Leitz organisation, and finally brings you right up to date with the Management buy-out in the middle of 1992.
Very useful advice and tips for the collector complete this ultimate guide to one of the most rewarding of all collectables.
