Gandolfi Hand and Stand Camera
The Gandolfi Hand and Stand Camera is a British-made wood and brass plate camera, a format that places it among traditional large-format field cameras intended for both handheld use and tripod work.
Sales data for this model is limited: a single UK auction hammer result from January 2024 saw an example sell for £300, which gives a wholesale saleroom benchmark rather than a retail price. With only one data point, today's market value can only be indicated, not confirmed, and condition of the bellows, woodwork and brass fittings will heavily influence what any individual example is worth.
