Yes, it's for the ur-Leica # 116, at the Westlicht Auction (Vienna).
I don't care: I collect Leicas only from 1928![:D]

Being from Vienna I can tell you the auction was all over the news here.

The Yahoo page is hilarious, at least they didn't use a picture of a digital camera.[;)]

Hi Jacques,
"I don't care: I collect Leicas only from 1928!"
Do you mean "Ils sont trop verts et bons pour les goujats"??
