Universal "Mercury II"

This is the model CX variant from 1945. The last of the Mercury series w/ 2.7 Tricor lens, circular focal plane shutter 1/20 - 1/1000. Kind of a pleasing "machine age" design, with arcane dials and complicated guide numbers galore (front and back).  Aluminum body. Cool camera.
