The attached photos show my 2m Nedinsco/Zeiss rangefinder, it along with another (but damaged one) originally came from the Granville area in Normandy. Does anybody have details/photos of these ?
I bought them through a friend who lives in Vire, who got them for me from a local scrapyard/carbreakers, the chap who runs it, his father had cleared much wartime equipment in the 40/50's and these apparently were from the coastal area of Granville.
The damaged one appears to have had a charge put on it, to put it out of action (possibly to stop it being reused once captured ?), it is also of a larger diameter than the good one and is missing its identication plate.
Thanks Gary
