Optics clear, shutter speeds all work, rangefinder works, focus is smooth (although stiff). Aperture blades clean and work smoothly, minimal wear, leather in great condition. One of the AA batteries leaked a little, cleaned up. Fresh batteries installed, light will work with a little more cleaning on the contacts. Fresh from an estate sale of a long-time camera collector.
Prior to that I was a police officer for 30 years and a high school teacher for 5 years. I was diagnosed with throat cancer and congestive heart failure (CHF) so I had to retire. I complete over 1,000 auctions per year and like to keep my customers happy. I have many return customer and would like to have you as one also.
