Great danger of fraud on these, especially at a $2000 price!
And a ebayer who calls himself Coopiecat ! ? ? ?
I have a collection of 'post' Ashiflex bodies, collected cheap on ebay.
Most do not show the wear of these.

Bob you're looking at it the wrong way! Pentax is like Leica now.
Too bad the Russians didn't make a decent copy, and the Luftwaffe didn't
buy Asahi.

PJ,
Well, not many people know that Herman Gouring made a secret trip to
Japan in 1943.
He shared lens and ariel photography expertise with the Japanese.
I have a special Asahiflex camera that he was given to commorate the visit.
My Uncle Bill acquired it when he served with US Army Counter

Thanks Michel. They look very interesting to me. I'm not thinking to compete
on those items, but I'm very glad to see them and, as opposed to the
immediate feeling developed here, I'm rather positive on the authenticity of
those cameras
I meant I have another source for such a camera.
