Leica I Mod. A Elmar 'Calfskin' SN: 42293

Very Rare And Absolutely Original Leica Model A, With Calfskin Leather Covering (Leanekalb). According To Hahne, Only 180 Examples Of The Calfskin Leicas Were Produced In 1930. Many Of These Have Been Later Replaced During Restoration By Leitz With Regular Vulcanite When The Genuine Leather Wore Off. So, The Number Of Original Calfskin Leicas Still In Existence Today Is Very Low. The Offered Example Is In Good Condition. It Comes With An Uncommon Purse-Style Case And Fofer Rangefinder. It Was Delivered To Berlin On 05.07.1930. The Delivery Records Show The Correct Note 'Kalbsleder' Near The Serial Number.
