I doubt the shoe is original. There are several things about the camera that aren't original. Done by former owners. The Pacemaker Graphic view finder, for instance. The focus Panel and springs are Pacemaker Graphic, too. That didn't fit at all correctly and I had to do a little machine work on the back. Now, it will accept Grafmatics. It came to me this way, and it was a horrible mess. I tore it all apart, sand blasted it and painted it. Repaired everything that needed it, including the shutter. The body is drilled and tapped for a rangefinder surround/flash bracket.
I'm out of brackets right now, but it matters not to me. The shutter isn't synced anyhoo. The goofy lookin' thing takes fantastic photos!
