Kemper Kombi

The Kemper Kombi is a small-format roll film camera from the early twentieth century, designed as a compact box-style instrument that could be used for both still and stereoscopic-style work. It was sold as an inexpensive everyday camera rather than a professional tool, and today it is collected mainly as a period curiosity.

At UK auction in recent years, hammer prices for the Kemper Kombi have clustered tightly, with the two recorded saleroom results sitting at £132 and £135 — a median of around £130 and a narrow range of roughly £130–£140. As of today these are wholesale-level results before commission, and any premium over that band typically depends on the camera arriving complete with its original case or paperwork, which is what most collectors are willing to pay more for when one sells.
