Black paint MP in almost mint and original, never restored condition, casting number 111802, 'P 99' engraved on chassis. With matching Leicavit MP and black paint Summicron 2/5 cm no.1468952, original ever ready case, cap and the brochure dated IX/56. With expertise by Ottmar Michaely. It is remarkable that camera and lens were both originally shipped together to New York on November 19, 1957 (shipping number 49851/61932). Provenance: Private collection USA. The black-paint version was produced only 141 times and has been acquired mainly by professional photographers. Many of the famous Magnum photographers used MP cameras. Today it is among the most sought-after Leica's. The mere fact that the Leica MP was bought and used almost exclusively by photo journalists allows us to conclude that a second, black-paint MP in this pristine, original state is practically impossible to find.
