Yashica Electro Collection up for grabs?

[Clark.EE]

Anyone interested in my Electro Collection?
I think I have them all except the GL & a CCN. I stand to be corrected.
There are 20 altogether. Will probably keep a GX. there are 3, 2 silver 1 Black. I think. 2 sets of GX conversion lenses.
3 Professionals, 2 early & 1 late.
2 Silver electro , different iso ranges.
1 Electro G Silver,
GS & GT *2 different bottom plates of GT.
GSN GTN. + Conversion lenses.
Case for GSN?
Lynx 14 (Not Electro)
MG1 silver & black + Conversion Lenses Incredibly Rare! (Not Electros)
M5 *2
CC, FC,
YK YL & the 2 different 35`s (2nd pic) Again Not Electros & I will probably keep these. & the 1/2 Frames! Yes I have quite a few.
Cases for most of them.
+ Flashes light meters etc.
Quite comprehensive.
I would like it to stay together.


Most work or did work.
Not put a film through them for a while.

Probably keep the 2 Yashica figures & the Yashica Playing cards! Yes playing cards!
PM me if you have 3 large spare shelves to fill!

You will probably get more interest in the classifieds section...

Reusing chance to meet Electro 35FC owner I'd like to ask if your is exposing propely? Have read FC is fussy and electronics often goes bad, on mine it underexposes 2 stops (so I happily use it for 800-3200 film).

Nice collection! If you were selling separately, they'd probably mostly sell quickly I'd say. I think buying that many all in one shot requires more up front cash then many people would want to fork out.

Gorgeous cameras though!

As somebody with a growing Yashica collection of his own, I'm incredibly jealous, though I cannot take on the complete set. If you ever decide to break up the set, I would be most interested in a Professional and the Lynx.

You know you want them all!

Just had a look at the Professionals.
The early ones fire. The later one does not.
One of the early ones sounds like it has POD problems.
The other sounds fine. I will find my battery adapter.
Fortunately its on my desk, not in one of the cameras.
& try it out.
According to Joe Wollf. Working Professionals are just about non existant.

Just had a quick look on Ebay, 2 professionals listed.
1 is a cut & shut GT listed for £45.
Wrong wind lever & wrong battery cover.
The other looks genuine, £85.00 with a lens set.

Wow, you'll certainly be a useful resource for the next "Which Yashica?" thread!

PS- As mentioned above, best list this in the classified both for higher visibility and to comply with RFF rules regarding sales.

Clearly, a labour of love! These are great cameras and you have a great collection.
