Someone on Reddit found this Meyer Rangefinder at Goodwill and didn't know what it was or anything about it. I could recognize it as a rangefinder, likely large format, and that it appears to be from Meyer Optik.

My thoughts are, the Meyer logo on it doesn't seem to be like any Meyer logo I can find, anyone else seen something like it?
It absolutely looks like other Meyer rangefinders (see this Ebay batch for one that looks very close.)
Why does it have a leather case made in Japan between ~1947-1955 when Meyer is a German company?
What camera do you think this came from?
(My background with LF is my parents are 4x5 people who did photogrammetric documentation of historical building and structures.)
