I was told that this is an M-1 !!! Olympus had to change
markings , because Leica ownes the name M-1 , so only 1200 M-1
had the inscription M-1 , others were changed to OM-1 , this
came from an oldtime Olympus sales- rep , he is been selling
cameras for 29 years and has no reason to lie to me !!!
Mckoews also mention that in their book !!!
