I have two of these vintage screw mount lenses for sale. As you know, they fit classic Leicas. Both were purchased by my father in the early 60s and are in "like new" condition. I have the original papers.

Canon 135 mm F: 3.5 w/ all necessary accessories (scope/finder) and 48 mm lens filter; also comes with original, labelled brown leather padded case w/ strap. Asking $200.00.

Canon 35 mm F: 1.5 w/ original, labelled and padded brown leather case w/ strap and 48 mm lens filter. This is rare and fast and recently sold for $609.00. My dad, an architect, purchased it to take pix inside of cathedrals and such. I am asking $450.00 firm.

I also have a Canon V flash unit for use on the Rangefinder that is cosmetically perfect w/ a tan leather case. I have not tested it since I sold the RF body on CL w/ the 50 mm lens. I will throw this flash into the the deal for free. Questions welcomed.

ken is the 135mm chrome or black? Just curious really I have the chrome version and a 35mm f1.8 Black and chrome. But it would be interesting from a collectors point of view to know which of the 6 versions your selling.

Thanks good luck you might have MUCH better luck on the Leica forum on Photo.net they buy a huge amount of stuff there.

Mark:

The 135 is black w/ some chrome. I sold the RF body and 50 mm on CL and thought I'd give AK a shot. I will take your advice and do Photo.net. I hate to get rid of the camera and lenses, but I have three vintage set-ups and I am just not a camera collector. I sold the RF body and 50 mm for less than it was worth to a youngster because I knew that he was going to use it.

Ken,

Hi! Are these still for sale? I have a Canon P that would suit them nicely!
