DAW,
Perhaps you harken back on the Kalart Focuspot? An example for Rollei
Automats sold on ebay a week or so ago:

(http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170223973112)
Very interesting item.
Late Pacemaker Graflex cameras came with something similar and some form
could be added to older side mounted rangefinder models getting power from the
batteries in the flash handle.
I have a Rolleimeter on a 2.8C and fast focusing is a breeze. Incredibly
useful accessory which should have been carried on to the removable finder
model Rolleis.
Health, Peace

As for me, referring back to the recent posts on the Rolleimeter, and this
is probably ploughing old ground, who made that night focusing device for the
Rollei's in the 1950's. The one the photographer used to take to school
dances and aimed and focused with a pair of light beams that converged on the
subject?
In incredibly clever idea.
