Posted - Mar 16 2009 : 07:15:03 AM Hi,
let me show you one of the earliest Lubitel cameras. The particular version comes with "Leningrad" markings on the frontplate (underneath the lens), 6 visible screws on the side-plate. It's interesting to mention, that my camera #016760 still has special spring in filter compartment (like on early Komsomolets cameras, we were disscusing this Topic some time ago ... ).
I'm becoming totally "sick" with all my Lubitels ... Let me show you one more sample from an early batch. Camera identical to sample I've placed here few months ago, but with date prefix in serial number already. Interesting to mention, that particular camera comes without 6 screws on the side-plate, though at least two known cameras with bigger serial number, have 6 visible screws again ...
this camera was found on eBay just few weeks ago ... I knew about the existance of particular version, but never succeded to buy one for my collection. Now I'm lucky owner of this nice camera, so next one will be yours, ok?
