Very rare and beautiful Leica IIIf body in very good condition, the top plate is engraved 'Ernst Leitz Canada Limited Midland Ontario', with film spool engraved 'Leitz-Canada', together with a matching Midland Summarit 1.5/5 cm no.1246604, lenses in particularly good condition only showing few and discrete cleaning marks on the front element, with front lens cap, also included is a very rare Midland Leicavit manual winder, in almost mint condition. More than 5.000 units of the Leica IIIf were produced by ELCAN, but only about 200 specimens did carry the Canadian engraving, finding a complete set in this condition is extremely difficult nowadays.
