Leitz 'Barnack' Kamera Brochure
The very first brochure of the new Leitz camera from 1924, one year before the official delivery of the Leica, back then the camera was known under the name BARNACK-KAMERA. Extremely rare. The department constructing the first production Leitz camera was called 'Barnack Department'; perhaps that is why the first printed matter to introduce the camera simply called it the 'Barnack Kamera'. Shortly later a new name Leica has been announced in the magazine Photofreund in mid-February 1925.
