Exakta IIa - Version 1.2 (Rare - modified faceplate - Small vx IIa engraved with border)

Hummel #025 (Exporte)

Essentially a Varex IIa, Version 1, with a modified front plate. I elected to call this version, Version 1.2. The original Varex IIa engraving was ground and hammered out and re-engraved with only the small case vx plus IIa letters. This is one of the versions that are easily counterfeited. Unless you are experienced with these versions, let the buyer beware.

In Gary Cullen's Book, Exakta Obscurities, this camera is identified as a Version 12.
