And it all started with collecting a 1926 Leica.

Dear John,

Oh, dear. Why didn't you say before? I'm sure that many of us here on RFF could have outbid them...


Cheers,

Roger,

Have you checked your spam folder?

Actually, as you did not rise to the bait to purchase Neobrom in Brno---

I actually wonder now and again how much is left of the plant, they were affiliated with Foma pre-revolution, the paper I had coated, cut and shipped was packed in Foma envelopes with their sticker covering.

With the sad events in the B&W manufacturing realm, you may yet have a chance to put together a start up group.

I mean, now you have saved the $15Mil on missing this purchase--

Regards, John

Dear John,

Ah, yes: the consumerist definition of 'saved'...

Never mind. Off to photokina tomorrow, and the Leica party on Monday.

Cheers,

Yeah, I was in up to $14 million.

If you cannot rationalize, you have no business buying new kit, or new old kit for that matter. Let me know what I am paying for at the Leica party. I believe there is a meeting coming up in Boston soon as well?
