THIS VINTAGE ELMAR 50/2.8 LENS
FOR LEICA SCREW MOUNT IS COSMETICALLY REALLY MINT- !
...it will be PERFECT fitted on your Leica IIIG, but with a simple adapter it is also useable on any Leica M...

e

And, as you may notice looking at my pictures, it comes with a front vintage Leitz cap, a generic rear cap,
and with a contemporary, EX+ original ITOOY hood (used, not ugly)...

...with serial # 1453534 has been made on 1956, and seem to me a real "miracle" that after 46 years
since the manifacturing days it is still (cosmetically) MINT- !

...also the rear side with the screw mount is MINTY, as the front cap...
...the distance scale is graduated in METERS...

...all glasses are still transparent and free from wipe marks, fungus and separation,
and you may find in it only the few dust particles that are normal for any so "aged" lenses...

...the MANY (fifteen !) aperture leaves are quite clean, near mint and perfectly "clicking",
the focusing rotation is EXCEPTIONALLY SMOOTH, and the chrome finish
all around is perfect, flawsless. A RARE COLLECTOR's FIND, rarely seen !
€ 590 (Eur) for this lens, with both caps and the Itooy hood
