First Leica camera with interchangeable lens that was standardised without being matched with specific production lenses!
Comes with rare Wollensak 50mm f3.5 Velostigmat 

This is a VERY RARE NEW YORK Leica I STANDARD camera set. Post war camera that was assigned for the NEW YORK market and marked as such. With its matching E LEITZ INC. N.Y. box and the most rare WOLLENSAK VOLOSTIGMAT 50mm f3.5 lens and front CAP.

I also recently sold a Leica Standard NY with the 50mm for $4995.

It was a bit cleaner but this is a great value considering and this is not an easy set to find especially with the NY body cap and box which I did not have in my other listing which sold for significantly more.

Wollensak 50mm Velostigmat f3.5 lens

Original matching Leica NY marked red presentation case. NICE!
