Here is a very early Canon iib with the bottom marked "Made in occupied Japan" and the Japanese characters which indicate this is for export only. This is very hard to find!
The shutter is in good shape with no apparent fraying or holes, and the speeds sounds good even down to 1 second.
The view finder is a little hazy, could use a cleaning. But there is good contrast in the rangefinder.
There is some leather missing in the front and it needs to be re glued.
Original take up spool is included.
$150 shipped in the USA. Overseas will be additional cost. Thank you!
