Saw this on molotok. An early combination of a Zorki-1 #36107 domestic logo with an Jupiter-8 #5006081 with an original big cup leather case.

Lenny,

I think, this case is form Zorki with Industar-22 rigid. I also have such one in set.
So far as I know Zorki (or Zorki-1) was never produced with Jupiter-8, the lens came with Zorki-3.

Regards, Alexander

Hi Alexander,

you could be right, but this Jupiter-8 is from 1950 and match the Zorki-1 in time. I know only about one Zorki-3 with a Jupiter-8 #50xxxxx, saw it on photohistory.ru, it is a very early Zorki-3 maybe around #00200 with the lens #5007502. So I think this earlier Jupiter here #5006081 might really belong to this Zorki-1.

Thanks Lenny

Lenny,
OK, you are right, but according to sovietcams these cameras were produced since 1952 and your camera is from about 1950, the s/n is too low. From this year comes rigid Industar-22, it seems for me to be more truthful.
I will try to get more information and post it here.

Regards, Alexander

Alexander,
I only wanted to show you that there were original combinations of Zorki-1 and Jupiter-8. And sovietcams is not the wisdom of photography, same as other websites and books where mistakes and fakes can be found. I appreciate the effort sovietcams and all the other sources made, but they can't be complete in every detail.
Thanks Lenny

Little bit more to this story this time with a Jupiter-3 #5001860 and a Zorki-1 #31741 with the same kind of leather case.
