Not that I'm going to bid on either at these prices, but the Casca II is a very worthwhile collectible. Among other interesting things, it predates the Leica M3 as a 35mm rangefinder camera with interchangeable lenses and projected framelines for them (although the Casca's are fixed rather than parallax-compensating.)
