Description from the seller

Premium Auction – Rare genuine leather Leica case (vintage model from 1950–1960)

Discover an essential collectible piece for Leica enthusiasts and vintage photography lovers. Here, I present a genuine leather Leica case, original and perfectly representative of the iconic accessories produced in the 1950s–1960s.

This hard case, designed to protect Leica telemetry devices of the era, is a classic example of German craftsmanship: thick leather, sturdy stitching, precise molding, and the Leica logo embossed in relief on the front face.

Key features & technical details

Model: Vintage Leica hard case

Probable compatibility: Leica IIIf, IIIg, M3, M2, or similar models (based on dimensions).
Material: thick genuine leather, molded to fit the shape of the case and the lens block.
Color: dark brown with a beautiful natural patina, highly sought after by collectors.
* Logo: Leica embossed in relief (original marking).
Closure: press button / front screw typical of Leica models.
* Manufacturing: Germany (probable production by Leitz Wetzlar).
Inner lining: preserved leather/felt (visible in photos).
Fixation: lateral strap, original metallic passants.

Why does this lot have real value for a collector?

Authentic Leica piece, not a modern reproduction.
Perfect for completing an old case and significantly increasing its value as a collectible.
Ideal for display case presentation, exhibition, product photography, or vintage decoration.
Leather shows an aesthetic aging: light cracks, traces of time that tell its story.
A very rare accessory to find in good complete condition, especially with its logo perfectly visible.

Careful & secure shipping

The case will be carefully packed, protected against moisture and shocks, and shipped with a tracking number.
