A highly sought-after and extremely rare first-version black paint Leica M3. The camera remains in excellent cosmetic condition, showing an attractive patina from gentle use, with only a small dent on the top plate near the rewind lever. Originally delivered to Brandt in Sweden on June 3, 1958, it is accompanied by a black paint / brass mount Summicron 2/5cm no.1587239 with matching black paint lens cap.
Research in the Leica archives confirms a corresponding entry in the Leica Control Book, adjacent to the camera’s serial number, marked “schwarz lack”. This camera represents the most desirable and collectable variant of the black paint Leica M3!
