For sale: 50mm f/3.5 Industar-50 lens recently CLA’d and in near mint condition. This model is a collapsible Leica Thread Mount (LTM) or M39 and I used it extensively on my Leica IIIc. It comes with its own case and lens covers. $35 USD plus shipping. You may see photos of the lens itself, and some of the photos taken with this lens mounted on the Leica IIIc at the following URL:

For information - The Industar-50 was a 50mm f3.5 lens, derived from Zeiss's Tessar 4-element lens. It was nicknamed the "Eagle's eye". Its brand name Industar was used for all similar 4-element/3-group lens constructions of the whole soviet photo-optical industry.
 
Will, I'd love to have this for my IIIc. Sending PM now.
