I purchased this Yashica-Mat (serial MT 1070438) sometime last year but never used it because the winding was very rough. I finally sent it in to Mark Hama for a cla and now the winding is very smooth. Everything works as it should, the self timer works, the viewing lens looks like it has some external cleaning marks but the taking lens is clean and clear. The leatherette is in great shape. On the left side of the camera there is an engraving, 'Mosinee Senior High' which I found out is in Wisconsin. Probably used in a camera club back in the day. After I got the camera back from Mark, I flocked the interior. I have a weak spot for Yashica tlrs, but the interior of a lot of models end up needing to be flocked because the paint seems to lighten over time causing a lot of annoying light flare issues. You can see the before and after flocking photos with pics 7 and 8.
