Nice 5th version in meter scale (see von Einem 'Die 10 Varianten der klassischen Leica I A mit Elmar 1:3.5 F=50mm') in user and original condition and in working order, good optics only showing some cleaning marks on the front element, delivered to Munich on 26.03.1928, note the dimpled 'mushroom' style shutter release button, with black Bakelite lens cap, and meter scaled FODIS rangefinder no.19742 (light contrast but still usable).
