Sorry, the serial numbers I gave were for chrome bodies. My OM-1 black body
data shows no foam version started around serial; number 1,000,000 (body
production date approx. June 1977) up to where 1N black production started
maybe around serial number 1,500,000 (early 1979?)

one silver, that I almost never use, partly because I prefer the OM-4(T(i))
bodies, but also because they are just too darn pretty -- there's nary a
scratch or ding or rub mark on either, not even around the tripod socket.
But am I to understand from your post that neither of them have prism foam,
that is, that none of the "n" bodies have the stuff?
