Hi. I have a Bergheil which manifests the same sprocket-like light leaks along the edges. Did you ever find out where the actual light leak is?

@kedvenckep thanks for your interest. No - I have not checked yet. The camera was dormant for almost 4 decades (a friend of mine found it in a box in the basement of his grandparent's house). I find that the results fit with the shots I took - one feels the shots had been taken in the forties. The expired film adds to this.
