From the editor

A special limited LEICA CL camera released in 3500 units in 1975 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the first production LEICA. Each camera had a three digit number, preceded by a letter from the word LEICA. On the front it was engraved "50 JAHRE", with the 50 surrounded by oak leaves.
