A sought-after, original Leica M3 in black paint finish, from the official batch of 300 cameras produced in 1963–1964. The camera was delivered to Germany on 29 January 1964 and is preserved in excellent condition, with some parts showing the characteristic small bubbles developing in the black paint. It is accompanied by a black Summicron 2/90mm no.1983865. Both the camera and lens serial numbers are recorded in an included handwritten document relating to a private sale in 1975.
