There is a Minox Riga on eBay. The listing claims MINT and Serial No. 3967, which would be quite early, wouldn't it?

If this sample is authentic, the auction might be interesting to follow.

This post is purely for information of this group. I have no connection to the auction.

Fred, I agree this is interesting. But frequently on eBay I've bought things described as "MINT" when in fact "very nice," or "excellent" would have been much more accurate. In my opinion many eBay sellers use terms like "MINT" far too loosely. I think I'll contact the seller to obtain verification of true mint condition.
