ZEISS CONTAX S w Ercona Presentation box & compact pre set lens

Description

Contax S camera with ultra rare compact  pre-set 5 cm Biotar lens.  This lens was made the same size as previously made non pre set lenses in very limited quantities.  The camera comes with a presentation box which was apparently given to dignitaries (Big shots in the photo sales industry) by the US distributor of E German  Zeiss cameras.   The front of the Biotar lens has a spot which we thought was grease but does not appear to be a scratch. We are not sure how this ended up in our collection and if it was all packaged together originally.  But there are 2 extremely rare items here.
