Adams Vesta

{"overview":"The Adams Vesta is a British folding plate camera produced by Adams & Co. of London, a maker active from the late nineteenth into the early twentieth century. Because these figures are wholesale hammer prices rather than retail asking prices, a clean, complete example today is worth noticeably more than a tired one, and condition, original plate holders, and a working shutter account for most of the spread.","buying_guide":"Inspect the bellows for pinholes and corner splits, check the shutter for consistent slow speeds, and look for loose or lifting leatherette on the body panels.
