Leica 0-Serie Nr.107, $30,000
An original Leica O-Series Nr.107, this is the 7th camera of the Leica 0-series. Only approximately 25 of these cameras were produced to test the market in 1923, two years before the commercial introduction of the Leica A. It is the only camera known with “Germany” engraving on the top plate. The factory record indicates delivery to New York for patent applies. This means that this camera is not only one of the major existing rarities, it is also the first Leica being exported. This collectible Leica camera is a collector’s prized item.
