Hi guys, I have recently been tasked with the job of selling off my grandads camera collection.
I have searched Online for the individual cameras and have a rough idea of each of their values. However I was wondering if possible, you, the experts, could help me value them. I will start with the best in the collection;
a voightlander Bessa 2,
The camera is in pretty much mint condition, and comes with its ojriginal leather case which its been kept in its entire life, I also have the receipt from when this was purchased in 1947! I also have a UV filter for this, and possibly some other bits but I'm yet to sort through it all so price on just what's mentioned if possible
Bessa 2
Only damage on the camera is the leather coming up slightly as shown in this picture. Which for the cameras age is in mint condition.
I am looking to sell this and the other cameras which include numerous practikas, a few Zeiss Ikon, and some others which I forget the makes of. So feel free to make me an offer on this and the information on the other cameras will come soon.
Thank you,
philip
EDIT*
also, in case you cannot see on the picture lense info is; "COLOR SKOPAR 1:3.5/105"
and it's a 'synchro compur'
and as written on the receipt: 1 voightlander brilliant focussing .con R shutter, Heliar f3.5
and there's a 'Lern No.' And a number after 'shutter'. Sorry all that is written in pen and I can't quite read the handwriting so some could be wrong like the H in Heliar, could be a K or something for Keliar.. Can't quite tell.
