M3 Dbp

[waxman]

I own a Leica M3 with these markings 1059254 DBP Ernst Leitz GMBH Wetzlar Germany. I am interested in learning approximately what year this camera was produced. And if it does not violate the forum. Where I might sell it, Thanks

It looks like your M3 was built in 1962. See this URL for details:

As for where to sell it, you can always use the classifieds in RFF, and of course, there's always eBay.

I second the RFF classifieds. Great marketplace!
