Linhof Serial Numbers

[ssohl]

I'd like to know what model and year my camera with the following information is?

#2540815, d.b.p., made in West-germany

Dear Bob, it's my 5x7 V with the original 4x5 adapter.
Want to know its birthyear.
thank you.

However, it occurs another question.
It's my friend's 5x7 V.
The serial number is obviously later than mine. But it has III's back and the different front stand.
It's with the year of 1972 certificate.

dear Bob, thank you.
This one's serial number is later than mine. It also has a 1972 paper.
Why is it earlier?
And what is it exact model?

That serial number is from a Technika V 5x7 from the mid 60s. Who knows what may have happened to the camera during the half century + since it left the factory.
