    Re: Plasticca info anyone?

    We talk about the rear yellow filter of the Plasticca but it is very pale - at least now - almost 100 years on from production. This one is even paler than the one shown in #19.
    Note this example has the original barrel engraving rather than the period text front ring identification that most Plasticcas have.

    Because it was not focused properly. My guess.
