Most of the items are sold or donated to museums. Thanks for looking.
Here's an update -- there are still a few things left from the first batch of cameras. Thanks for everyone's help and patience as I learned the system! In the near future I'll be posting additional items -- and each item will be listed in a separate post. No more nightmares for everyone!
Here's the current list. The link for photos is also updated.

Hi fellow Hoggers,
I'm needing to sell my camera collection fairly quickly, and I'd much prefer that items go to trustworthy folks like you who will appreciate them instead of eBay lurkers and landfill scavengers.
I've got a real potpourri to offer. Almost everything's in usable condition, and very presentable cosmetically. I'm starting to make an inventory and photograph individual items, so will respond ASAP to your inquiries.
The "stuff" starts with Leica 3M and C-III bodies, Summicron 1:2/50 and four other Leica lenses, assorted meters, flash, cases and accessories.
Something I've always found pretty cool: a Verito Diffused Focus f/5, 15" lens in full brass barrel. It's one very big, neat door-stop! <grin>
From there, there are a few Speed and Crown Graphics, other sheet film shooters, various folding cameras from 1900 until the plastic stuff went onto the market (no plastics) including Kodak, Agfa, Balda Juwella, C LUNZ-Hanover. I've got a large McIntosh Stereopticon projector and slides, and all kinds of pre-digital photo advertising paraphernalia.
I've even got a neon "One Hour Photo" sign (will have to be packaged and shipped by UPS due to fragile nature). There are boxes and boxes of filters, hoods, and other generally useless stuff, too.
These things have been in our home since I collected them years ago, and a few have been displayed in my classroom (I retired as a high school and college photography teacher).
Unfortunately I'm relatively clueless about each item's value, so I'm planning to trust you folks to submit reasonable offers -- be fair to yourself, but realize that I'm trying to pay off a brain tumor surgery, so please be fair to me, too. If there's an offer that I think is simply too low, I'll let you know. Above all, we'll keep it all friendly -- one very ugly hedgehogger to another. Okay? (Shipping will be actual charges only, well-packed and insured. I don't know anything at all about international shipping, so you'll either have to talk me through it, or we'll keep things going to USA addresses.)
Soon, I'll list all the semi-modern stuff I've got to sell: medium format SLR, TLR, 35mm Nikon and Pentax, and some more recent digital (mostly Nikon).
Please PM with questions.
Many thanks!
Jim Ellenberger
