Houghton Klito No.0
The Houghton Klito No.0 is an early British box camera produced for roll film in the opening decades of the twentieth century. It was positioned as an inexpensive entry-level snapshot camera for amateur users.
Hammer prices at UK auction for the Klito No.0 have sat between roughly £100 and £130, with a median near £115 — these are saleroom results, so retail asking prices from dealers today tend to run higher. With only a couple of recorded sales, the market is thin and condition-sensitive, and values for cleaner, complete examples can sit at the upper end of that range.
