LEICA LEITZ 50MM SUMMARIT F1.5 SOOIA-M 11120 LATE # SMALL SCRIPT LENS +CAP NICE!

$795.00
Product SKU: 30144
Description
-Serial #1528115
-Made in 1957 in Wetzlar, Germany
-Leica M mount - looks like it was originally a SM LTM with an adapter but the mount is actually fixed on the lens. 
* This was common at that time, and a tech could take it back to an LTM SM but it is as proper M mount with the adapter fixed on at the factory at the time.
-Chrome finish
-Classic 50mm f1.5 lens
-Predecessor to the 50mm f1.4 Summilux lens
-Black meter focusing scale with infinity focusing lock
-Fast f1.5 aperture; great for portraits or low light photography
-Renders amazing bokeh

This is a fantastic example. The later small script is a fine lens and in all means a Summilux 50mm 1.4. The pre production Summilux PROTOTYPE lenses actually fall into this serial # category ( sometimes )
This particular example is also very clean. 
The glass has a faint haze but very minimal considering these are prone and has NO LINES in the glass which is very very RARE.
Great optics as they are. NO LINES and clean glass with only a minor haze, with the small script and very clean.
A FINE EXAMPLE
