Blair Cameraco. Focusing Weno Hawk-Eye No.3
The Blair Cameraco. Focusing Weno Hawk-Eye No.3 is an early box-form roll-film camera produced by the Blair Camera Co., a US maker active before its absorption into Eastman Kodak. It dates from the turn of the 20th century, when the Hawk-Eye name covered a range of simple wooden box cameras aimed at amateur photographers.
Auction evidence for the Focusing Weno Hawk-Eye No.3 is thin: the only logged UK saleroom result is a single hammer price of £150 from November 2023, so any sense of what one is worth today rests on that lone data point. As a wholesale auction figure (excluding buyer's and seller's commission) it suggests collectors currently value clean examples around the £150 mark, but with so little turnover the price a given example sells for can move sharply with condition and completeness.
