COLLECTORS NOTES
A matching‑serial Leica M2 with both box and instructions is significantly rarer than standard bodies and highly desirable among collectors. The 1962 production year sits within one of the most sought‑after periods for M2 manufacturing. Fully serviced examples with matching packaging are increasingly scarce and command strong interest from Leica enthusiasts.
