I've found this to be very helpful.

This chart is consistent with all of the other information I have collected about my Leitz LTM lenses. However, my one M mount lens falls outside of the range by two years. I have a collapsible Summicron in M mount that this chart says is 1954 while my Leica Handbook (the red pocket size) says is 1956. Can't tell which is more accurate.

This is just what the Dr (me) ordered. Thanks

I'm in the market for a Leitz 50mm lens and had no sources to date

Paul, I have a collapsible M-mount Summicron at home. I'll check its serial number and maybe we can figure it out.
