A Leitz right-angle finder, an improved version of the WINKO finder. It features a movable prism, and by lowering the arm, the rangefinder image can also be viewed from the side. This example is the chrome version.
A fair number of these can still be found, so they must have sold reasonably well at the time. Whether people bought them for practical use or simply for the fun of it is an interesting question.
For those who want to shoot vertically and from a low angle with a Barnack Leica. A very Leitz-like accessory that is satisfying simply to mount on the camera.
The exterior is in very good condition with only light signs of use. There are some scuffs on the underside of the accessory shoe, and only a few faint, minor scratches on the Leitz logo. The chrome plating is also in good condition, with the fine quality characteristic of Leitz products of the period.
All functions operate properly. The finder has slight haze, but remains well within a practical usable range. The rangefinder mirror shows some minor age-related deterioration, but this does not affect the view.
The original box is included.
