That's too bad as well! Well everything is worked out with that Zorki though, it was in excellent shape with great lens on it, so a friend took it off my hands.

Pity. I recently bought Smena 8M with all black faceplate:

Happens to be fake too, made from "Winner in competition for 1984".

... and this one turned out to be a fake. Just received it. You can faintly see the Zorki - 4K in English rubbed off, and a one of those rub on stencil alphabets IVK applied on, can easy be scratched off with a nail. Too bad  At least has a very nice lens on it and good working condition..

This camera should be a TOE import once it is from England. TOE used to ask for some different labesl from original sources. I dont know why.

I was thinking that this camera made to be relabeled, or it was relabeled at one time, but original label fall off.
Few Zenit E cameras made this way, but Zorki, I believe, first time discovered.
Would be interesting to know more about this camera after you receive it.
And no you was not bidding against me, but I was looking on this camera, and extremely happy that you got it. |

My opinion, it's most likely an alteration... sorry if I was bidding against you ... I'll examine it more closely once I receive it.
