The Hunter & Sands Tailboard Camera is a British-made wooden field camera of the tailboard pattern, a folding plate-camera design that was standard for studio and outdoor view work in the late Victorian and Edwardian period. Cameras of this type used a hinged rear baseboard (the tailboard) that folded down to allow the rear standard to slide along rails for focus, and they accepted glass plates in dark slides.

At recent UK auction, hammer results for Hunter & Sands tailboard examples have sat between roughly £100 and £240, with the two tracked sales averaging about £170. Because the sample is small, what a given example is worth today depends heavily on completeness — bellows condition, presence of a lens, and original dark slides can swing the price a buyer sells for at saleroom level by a wide margin.
