Thank you, Jan! What a contrast - with only Rollei and Leica present among
all of the Japanese signage. Time goes on.

Subject: [rollei_list] Another giant Baby Rolleiflex replica
From: CarlosMFreaza <cmfreaza@xxxxxxxxx>
When I visited Buenos Aires city a few days ago, I went to "Antique
Cameras", a shop where you can find second hand cameras and accessories,
some cameras are very old really. I needed an original lens cap for my
"new" 2,8F Planar and I could buy it there. This is the same shop with the
"Rolleiphone" I showed here some years ago. Now, beside the "Rolleiphone",
I found another Baby Rolleiflex giant replica (I say "another" because we
had a thread about a similar replica some time ago); these replicas were
made to introduce the Rolleiflex 4x4 during the Leipzig Fair in
1931, they made about ten units (writing from memory). These are two images
abut the replica (click on the thumbnail):
