Hachiyo Alpenflex

Sugiyama lists six different Alpenflex model photos, including the "Alpen-MO", which is what I have as the Alpem M - see below. McKeown seven plus the Alpen-M and a "Supre-Macy" brand for Macy's of New York, but he has no photos of any of them. Hachiyo Optical Co. seems not to have made any other camera types.

Hachiyo Alpenflex IO

This is the second of two similar variants shown in Sugiyama, dating c1952. It came in very nice condition from the collection of the late Col Bill Arps, a well-known collector in the eastern US.
 
. Taking lens is Hachiyo ALPO 75mm f3.5
Shutter is Orient II 1 to 1/200

Hachiyo Alpenflex I (?)

I think this is a plainer-finish variant of the rather fussy-looking Alpenflex I models in Sugiyama, based on the shutter type, which seems unique to the Model I. This indicates at least eight separate models.
Taking lens is Hachiyo ALPO 75mm f3.5
Shutter is Orient II 1 to 1/200

Hachiyo Alpenflex Z

This model is listed in Sugiyama, but not McKeown, although the latter lists an unpictured model with a Copal B shutter, which might be this one. Unusual kinks in nameplate make it readily identifiable.

Taking lens is Hachiyo ALPO 75mm f3.5
Shutter is Copal 1 to 1/300

Hachiyo Alpen-M

This is the rare Alpen-M - th only one I've ever seen. It is essentially the same design as the contemporary Alpenflex IIS. For reasons I don't understand, Sugiyama calls this the Alpen-MO.

Taking lens is Hachiyo ALPO 75mm f3.5
Shutter is Orient III 1 to 1/200
One model I don't have is an Alpenflex IIS, with the Orient III shutter. This is fairly uncommon, but a picture of a fairly grotty one is HERE
