Serial #1124012 screw mount version lens
Leicas unique stereo twin lens
Will even work on your modern Leica M digital bodies too with the SM LTM to M adaptor
This is a wonderful and very clean, complete set. One of the nicest I have seen as it has all its PROPER originals included the caps for the lens, even the original STEMAR case.
This is a very interesting lens as this particular one is one of THE EARLIEST examples you will ever have the pleasure to find. This is THE 12TH example ever made of the Leica STEMAR.
Production started POST WAR #1124001.
Previous to this was the Stereo Elmar made in 1940 for 1 year.
This Stemar lens was a post war project that came out in 1954 for 1 year in 4 batches of approx 1500 examples
An incredible find as this one is so pretty, complete, clean and EARLY. #12
An incredible find and coming from a collection that everything was purchased NEW MINT and never used. This is an incredible example!
