Graflex Crown Graphic
The Graflex Crown Graphic is a press-style large format field camera, produced in the United States during the mid-twentieth century. It was sold as a lighter, non-focal-plane-shutter alternative within the Graphic line, aimed at press and general professional use.
Sales data for the Crown Graphic at UK auction is thin, with a single recorded hammer result of £400 in 2023 — a wholesale saleroom level rather than a retail asking price. On that limited evidence, today's value sits around the low-to-mid hundreds of pounds, though condition, completeness of the lens and shutter, and bellows integrity will materially shift what a Crown Graphic is worth or sells for.
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.
