just arrived in my collection

Great so it is solved.
I had problems with word комиссионный. It could come from second hand shop or from committee.
But I still don't undestand line with year 1942 and with the first word covered by ink.

It says "the date of acceptance for commission"

The line after the date says "Detailed name and description of item"

Thanks Vlad, this was the line I could not understand because of ink and 3rd word which half of it disappiered.

What about the line above the date with the partial lens serial?

"Receipt Stub Number 5489"

Here's everything that's filled out translated:

Hi all!

Just arrived today, with the Fed/Zorki in an other topic

Fred

I caught this early Lieningrad yesterday at a local camera fair for its viewfinder.My other two 61xxxx and 63xxxx Lieningrad cameras all have a broken viewfnder that is not possible to repair. This one seems to have a viewfinder that has a solid metal base. I guess this 001848 Lieningrad was made in 1958? It is still in excellent cosmetic condition.Here are some images of the camera and comparison of details with my 1961 one.

Cheers,

Zhang

Some more details images of 001848 and a 61xxxx Lieningrad. Winding and rewind nobs are not exactly the same.
BTW, this defective lieningrad cost about the same as a Nikon F3 and 4x as a Pentax SP at the same market.:) But a vintage Chinese movie lens 20/1.4 in Arriflex standard mount for 35mm camera cost five times as much as a Nikon F3!

I couldn't wait to open it to see if I bought a camera with a good viewfinder. If not, my money was wasted. Here it is. A good viewfinder and a parts camera. But I think with a new cloth coutain, I could bring it back to a functioning camera.
The metal base of my 63xxxx camera is full of cracks, but the 001848 one looks much better. I also found that the film pressure plate of the early camera is different although they could be made of the same material (glass?).
Perhaps I sould have posted the messages in a camera repair section?

Yes, the plate is glass, or at least it should be.

Best regards,
Juhani

My new toy!!! 1952 Kiev III

Two of my Leicas, a 1930 I(A)with a close focus lens, and a 1932 I(E) standard.
Yes, I am OT. But after all, these cameras are the grand-parents of our Fed 1a-s!

Amitiйs. Jacques.

Jacques, they really look nice :-)

Some of my new findings:

A Horizont with red label and some differences to normal ones.

First, the digits on the frame counter are bigger:



Second, there is a fixing screw for the viewfinder:



At least it comes with both filters and bakelite grip:

Next is an I-50 enlarger lens, looks nice:

And this fine Zorki Stereo Set with enlarger mask, viewer and box:

Nice stereo set, Ulrich! Mine is not complete: I miss the mask.
Here, another Fed. An early 1a, the # 1453 in fact, with a correct "1 turn" lens.
Compared to my other later 1a-s, this one has a different vulcanite and an assembling a bit uneven. That "smells the beginning". Happy to get it!



Amitiйs. Jacques.

Jacques,

wow, what a nice FED! I always wanted to have one with such a low number :-) But they are hard to find...

Smena-4 #002847 (PK2230 with lever)
Please see "rivets" in the name tag.
Unused, from a local camerashop inventory :)





Best regards,

A not so common 1949 collapsible ZK-Zorki, with a special Zeiss number on the rangefinder body.
