Braun Paxette II
The Braun Paxette II is a 35mm viewfinder camera produced by Carl Braun of Nuremberg in the 1950s. It belongs to the Paxette family of compact German rangefinder and viewfinder cameras aimed at the amateur market of that period.
UK auction data for the Paxette II is very thin, with a single recorded hammer result of £200 in 2007. Because that figure reflects a wholesale saleroom result rather than a retail price, and because no recent sales are available, today's value should be treated as indicative only — clean, working examples are generally what the market will pay for, and condition heavily drives what one sells for.
