Rio de Janeiro 1960 Cameras

After the success of the 1958 Brussels Exhibition, there was one made in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in august 1960. It was probably the first foreign exhibition of the newly founded Maspriborintorg, now distributor of Soviet photocameras.

For your delight these were the first leaflets of these photo cameras.

Then, the Zenit 3 made my heart beat quckly. Just one year earlier I conceived a similar camera departuring from a Leica II. The Zorki 6 also took me a friend and easier to use Leica to everybody's pocket!
