Leica
Giant Display III
The giant display Leica, model III in black finish. The top, bottom, knobs shutter release and lens base are made of wood.
The body seems to be hollow metal with a leather-like covering. The lens tube is metal, and the knurling on the knobs and front rim
of the lens is corrigated metal. A Leica II with lens is shown for size comparison.
A view of the top, again with a real Leica for comparison.
A closer view of the top plate. Note the three screws in the top plate and the detail on the rails on the shoe.
