Leica in Colour

This is the only book to illustrate all the Leica models from 1924 onwards in full color. Over a period of more than five years, author Paul-Henry van Hasbroeck and photographer Cohn Glanfield have gathered Leica cameras and accessories from all over the world. These cameras have been painstakingly assembled and photographed in groups to show the development of the Leica system. This pictorial presentation enables the collector to study the technical evolutions of particular models and their accessories in all of their diversity. The evolution of the Leica camera is described by van Hasbroeck in individual introductions to each chapter and in explanatory captions. The book concludes with production figures for Leica cameras, a list of serial numbers of Leica cameras and Leica code words. The book will be fully up to date and will incorporate all the new items introduced at the September 1996 Photokina Show.
