Engraving:
ФЭД Трудкоммуна НКВД-YССР им. ФЭДзержинского Харьков
(FED Trudkommuna NKVD-USSR im FEDzerzhinskogo Kharkov)
(FED Labor Commune NKVD-Ukr.SSR named after F.E.Dzerzhinsky Kharkov)
Engravings on camera top are the same as on Fed 1b camera, with "YCCP" (Ukrainian SSR) engraving. Shutter speeds are identical to predecessor's as well. The only visible difference from Fed 1b is changed roundness form of the top plate. The particular change is due to the mechanism of the new Fed B, with a slow speed knob on camera's frontplate.
Evolution steps:
-with 5mm base plate pin, formerly 3mm (from #80.xxx).
-3 screws no longer visible under rewind knob (from #86.xxx).
-the front center screw under the lens rim is entirely visible (from #91.xxx).
The FED 1c "S" (with 1/1000 speed and 50mm/f2 lens) show the same evolutions.
Nice set on the last picture: NKVD 1c with matching 6,3/100mm lens and finder.
Serial number range: #54.xxx to 95.xxx
