67. 250 Black Prototype

One of 2 Leica 250 prototypes (nos.114051 + 114052, both illustrated in Lager Vol. I p.123). Originally based on a Leica II chassis the camera was converted (according to the Leitz repair book on October 12th, 1936) into a Leica (III) 250FF with slow speeds. These two cameras were the only Leica 250 prototypes produced in 1933 (see 'Hahne list' page 157). Pictures of this camera were used for many years in various Leica publications (C. Emmermann 'Leica Technik'). Since the conversion in 1936, the camera is still in the same never restored and fully working condition. It comes with both cassettes and a chrome Xenon 1.5/5cm no.376128. This is a unique opportunity to acquire one of the most important cameras in Leica's history.
