A special and UNIQUE set.
All marked N03/05 from the Kravitz family and Mr. Lenny Kravitz still has one himself.
A wonderful historical camera with a great collaboration and a fantastic lens combination in BRASS BODY with an outstanding color combination.
A complete set and always kept together from Leica to Lenny Kravitz.
Very important and beautiful
A pleasure to have and enjoy!
