Voigtländer Vários Camera bag

This lot constitutes a historic estate from the prestigious German brand Voigtländer, spanning the period from the 1930s to the 1960s. They are genuine leather pieces that exemplify the durability and luxury of Braunschweig’s optical engineering.
### 1. Detailed Inventory (Total: 16 Units)
The set is divided into three main conservation and era categories:
• The Historical Case (1 unit): A rare pre/post-war specimen (1940s) for mid-format bellows cameras (type Bessa or Perkeo). It is distinguished by the vertical design, thicker leather, and deep patina.
• "Ever-Ready" Cases (5 units): Intended for 35mm cameras of the Vito series (B, BL, BR) and Vitomatic. Include the base attachment screws and, in several cases, the original carrying straps.
• Precision Accessories Bags (10 units): * Droplet-shaped bags (reference 90/100) for auxiliary focusing lenses.
• Bags for filters and viewfinders (references 90/073 and 90/061).
• Hard cases (oval and rectangular with lock) for filter kits or hand-held light meters.
### 2. Condition and Interior
The condition is Authentic Vintage, showing signs of use that attest to its age, yet preserving functional integrity:
• Exterior Leather: In very good overall condition. The leather is flexible and retains sharp engraving of logos and references. It shows the natural wear of time (small scratches and patina), with no signs of rot or holes.
• Interiors (Velvet and Suede): Colors range from electric blue, burgundy, and beige.
• Important note about stains: Some interiors show old humidity stains (foxing) and pressure marks where the filters or cameras were stored for decades. These stains are purely cosmetic and typical of organic materials over 60 years old.
• Hardware and Closures: The snap buttons and metal closure systems (including the Original Tuck-Tite mechanism) are operational. The leather straps show some stiffness, hydration is recommended if they are going to be used extensively.
Weight for the bags alone: 2163g.
