Hello,
I am really interested in your photograph of the Leica 250s. I am compiling a web site about J Barker & Sons Ltd of Great Yarmouth who also had a number of Leica 250s. My late father in law George Meadows worked for Barkers, have a look at www.greatyarmouthphotographic.co.uk/seasidephotographer
Barkers mechanised their print production in the 1950s and made postcard size prints with Kenprinters made by Kennington & Bourlet a subsidiary of Ilford Ltd. Have a look at another of my web sites www.greatyarmouthphotographic.co.uk/ilfordltd
Barkers like so many photofinishers made some of their own gear and had a special processor to process the long lengths of film that were used in the 250s, 10 metres 33 feet of it in old money. I would be interested to know how other users of Leica 250s processed these long films.
I am not a registered user on P Base but you can contact me at paul.godfrey@ymail.com
Best wishes
Paul.

A nice site done by a major-collector of military-Leicas and good friend of Germany!
