Hi Juhani,

Nice IIIc!
The pattern of its "sharkskin" vulcanite is vertical, like on my IIIa "Monté en Sarre" which is contemporaneous (1949). On the other IIIc "sharkskin" I know, the pattern is horizontal.
Could you give me the s/n of your camera, for my tables, and to discuss with French specialists?

Thanks! Jacques.
PS: sorry to be OT, Vlad...

Sure, body # 484258 and lens # 629111 which is a bit older I suppose?
The camera is most likely sold originally in Stockholm Sweden by the ancient sticker in the baseplate inner surface, a well known shop for high-end German cameras. In the post-war Finland it was typical to go over to Sweden for "luxury items", as import here was still restricted.
This picture also shows the vulcanite clearly:

Ulrich, I am mistaken then, was too long ago, the Zenit Junior must've been with someone else then, maybe even Juhani, but with someone here Smile..

It is a very nice mint Leica!

Great lot, hopefully and likely also good price!
The Lubi is most likely a Kotleta: somenone just added the nameplate from the real SPUTNIK-stereocamera, which is easy. If it were real, there would be more than two specimen seen.

Best regards,
Juhani

Wow quite a nice purchase! I have the same Sputnik too, and Alain Berry had one but I think it was it's the entire shaft from Sputnik was transplanted. I agree with Juhani, but nice Feds and a PDF Zorki!!
