Here is a very clean Black ASAHI Pentax S2 Super - perfect for any collection.
About as close to mint condition as you are likely to find.
The only cosmetic damage is on the bottom of the camera where a small gash appears in the black finish.
Manufactured between April 1961 and December 1963, based on the serial number, this is an earlier production version of this camera line.
Black S2 Supers are very hard to find, especially in such outstanding condition as th...is one.
While the identifying model number is "S2" as depicted on the top left of the upper housing, there were two versions of this camera produced.
Production of the S2 was from May 1959 - April 1961 and the maximum shutter speed was 1/500 sec. It is also known as the S2 Model I.
The S2 Super was produced subsequent to the S2 and has a maximum shutter speed of 1/1000 sec. It is also known as the S2 Model II.
In the U.S., these cameras were distributed by Honeywell Heiland under the model number H2 Model 1 (1/500) and H2 Model 2 (1/1000).
The Japanese Military also had a version of these bodies known as the SB1 (1/500) and the SB2 (1/1000).
Everything appears to work as designed.
My intent in selling this item is not for its use, but to be a visual display piece in a collection. I have not used it, nor is my intent for you to do so.
Comes with an f/2 55mm Auto - Takumar lens with sunlite filter and a black leather Pentax case. No caps.
The lens is in outstanding condition with no fungus or cloudiness. The case is in very good shape for its age.
No warranty of any nature, be it expressed, or implied, is conveyed pursuant to the sale of this item.
Item sold in As In condition.
Sale is final.
Payment due upon purchase.
Feel free to ask all questions PRIOR to purchase.
Thank you.
