Tell me about it...  The ogre who brutalized my OM-1 before I got it
did that, along with denting the case, losing a bottom-plate screw,
and ruining the self timer (lever just flops around with nothing
happening).

(I knew the self timer was broken when I bought the camera, but only
noticed the rewind screw was broken later on).

Is there any danger of my rewind crank falling off and dropping down a
well?   The crank seems to be well attached, despite broken screw...
