1.

FED - 2 camera. It is special because it is <u>earliest currently known camera of PE0385 type</u> (type according to http://sovietcams.com/index.php?1883986375 - earliest known s/n mentioned there is later than this one)

<i>PE0385 was the very first type of FED-2 not to have name of the factory on top of camera anymore</i>

S/N <i><b>098360</b></i>

I've acquired this particular camera without any lens, and J-8 which you can see in picture was bought separately, and is unrelated. Camera comes with leather carrying case. Shutter works OK, one of curtains has been repaired (had small holes?), currently appears to not let any light through. Inside there is authentic removable brass take-up spool.

$ 50 or make a good offer.

2.

Very rare paper advertising-booklet of Soviet cameras from 1960, in good condition - see pictures. Considering that it is made of thin, fragile paper - I don't think much of them still exist.

Not sure what it's worth, make a good offer (since rules require a price - then $ 100, though this is too much and nobody will pay it = as I said, make an offer :))
