L’appareil photo d’espionnage Tochka S-252 rare KGB Spy

• "TOCHKA-58M" (Точка-58M) is a miniature spy camera made in the "special workshop" of KMZ for use by the KGB.
• This camera can be used with the famous "necktie disguise", strapped to the body under a shirt, with the lens dusguised as a tie tac.
• The camera shown is a model "b" which accepts Minox cassettes (unlike the model "a" which has its own unique cassettes). The model "b" also has a small viewfinder so that the camera can be used by hand to photograph documents and other things that must be viewed when photographing.
• When fully wounded it can shoot about 20 exposures by just pressing the shutter button each time. Speeds: 1/5 - 1/500 sec. This example has a small frame counter which you can see on the same side as the lens. Frame size, 8 x 11 mm. Fixed aperture and fixed focus lens.
• The camera is in working condition i have tested with film recently, shutter is uncurated! it may need some attention, sold as is! The viewfinder is a bit hazy but you can see it thru, teeth and paint loss on the body
• The Leica camera and Minox are just for presentation and to see how small is this camera!
