Hi, Bill and Frank -
I bought my OM 1 new in about 1975. It came with the little cap you're
talking about. I also bought the shoe at the same time. It came in its
own box and included a nicely made slide-in insert to protect the
contact. I still have both, and I can't imagine why.

Hi Frank,
I know about the little cap you mention as I found one myself last year.
I
can't tell you much about it though. I have never seen one in any OM
brochures or manuals. It may have come with the 1n & 2n when they were
sold new or they might have been a dealer give away. I believe Olympus
made them and they were not aftermarket. Any list members who got their
OM-1 or OM-2 new ever get one of these caps?
