Butcher Midg No.0
The Butcher Midg No.0 is an early 20th-century British box-form plate camera sold by W. Butcher & Sons of London. It was positioned as an entry-level plate camera for amateur photographers in the pre-WWI period.
Sales data for the Midg No.0 is thin: a single UK auction record from January 2024 shows a hammer price of £56, which sits at wholesale saleroom level rather than retail. On that limited evidence, today's value for a Midg No.0 is in the region of what one well-presented example sells for at auction, but a wider price range cannot be reliably established from one data point.
Sales History
Prices shown are UK auction hammer results — the wholesale level achieved in the saleroom. Neither buyer’s nor seller’s commission is included. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher.
