Asanuma Shashinki-ten (浅沼写真機店) was a Japanese distributor in the late 1920s and 1930s, based in the Marunouchi Building in Tokyo.[1] In the mid-1930s, the company advertised the Leica cameras.[2] In 1939, it was distributing the Leiket photographic products: filters, hoods, close-up lenses and a 75/4.5 enlarging lens.[3] It seems that this company was not related to Asanuma Shōkai, but this is not known for sure.[4]
