...but I'm back. I think.
I have no pictures to show, but I wanted to post here because I know that most of you will understand (better than most other people) what kind of emotional state I am in right now. I just received a tracking number from the previous owner of a Leica IIIc from 1950. The days (hopefully not too many of them) until I find out if it's a lemon or pure gold cannot pass by quickly enough, but as you all know, a tracking number is a portal to a place where time hardly moves at all.
I am on my way to a place that sells B&W film (hopefully), so I'll be ready for the camera when it arrives.
(I'm in Rio de Janeiro, btw, which explains why I have no idea where to buy film. )
Oh time, you *******, speed up!
That's all for now, guys.
I'm the proud owner of a tracking number. Hopefully next message I can show you a picture or two of a genuine Leica.
