Auction: Leitz Auction 33 (Lot AI_33_36934) Title: Leica M Monochrom 10961 'Stealth Edition'
Description:
The Leica M Monochrom special “Stealth Edition” was designed by Marcus Wainwright, founder and owner of the acclaimed fashion label “rag & bone.” Wainwright is also a dedicated Leica photographer who shoots with various Leica cameras, often in black and white using his M6. Marcus Wainwright’s design concept is the individual perfection of existing icons. In the case of the M Monochrom “Stealth Edition,” this means taking the discreet unobtrusiveness of the camera to the extreme. A special scratch-resistant, matte paint is used to make the surface finish as black as possible. Accompanying it in matching jet-black, the leather trim of the camera is made from an extremely smooth full-grain cowhide that also offers excellent grip. Included in the set is Summicron 2/35mm ASPH. no.4722897, finished with the same special paint as the camera body – a striking-yet-subtle matte black. Markings on the camera and lens are filled with fluorescent paint and are visible even in absolute darkness. The edition is limited to 125 sets only, this particular set bears the number 70/125 and is in mint, unused condition, complete with all accessories and papers. Estimate: EUR 20,000 - EUR 24,000 |
