Yashica Lynx 1000 35mm Rangefinder camera. This camera is 50 years old and in incredible condition. The serial number is L 3084186. 

First the bad news - there is a tiny spec of paint loss on the back of the camera at the bottom near the leatherette it is approximately 3/4" from the left edge of the back.  It is less than 1mm in size.
