The following are actual letters received by Leica over the years. We reprint them verbatim (no, those aren't our typos):
“Please allow me to ask if it is possible fro you to send a 'Leica' for my disposal in trade for business. I am offering the following: Insurance of all kind, private hospitalization insurance and Laundry Detergent. In case you are interested in one or the other...”
“I have three magnifying glasses in average of 10cm diameter, and a close-up set of 5.5.5 and 5.5 cm diameter. Are you able to make a binocular out of this? I think it is best to reduce the size of the glass to that of a binocular or photo. I assume you have binocular housings?”
“Both my Leica cameras were stolen, both cameras black in a briefcase with 1 pound of sausage, ¼ pound butter half a loaf of bread and Leica films (a lady in half figure pose with and without fur. Lady appr. 50 years).”
