What it is
{"overview":"The Ansco Memo is a half-frame 35mm camera produced by the American firm Ansco. With only one wholesale saleroom datapoint available in 2026, that figure is the only firm guide to what a Memo is worth today, and clean, working examples with original cassettes can be expected to price above tatty bodies.","buying_guide":"Inspect the wooden internal body and shutter for warping or sluggish operation, and check that the film transport advances cleanly.
