Kodak Library Kodascope
The Kodak Library Kodascope is a vintage cine film projector produced by Kodak for home and small-venue use, designed to play back amateur movie reels. It belongs to the early-to-mid 20th century era of consumer cine equipment that Kodak built around its own film formats.
Sales data for the Library Kodascope is thin, with a single recorded UK auction hammer result of £100 in 2011, so today's market value is hard to pin down with precision. On that limited evidence, working examples have sold for around £100 at saleroom level, though condition, completeness of accessories and originality of the case will heavily influence what one is worth now.

How much does a Kodak Library Kodascope sell for at auction?
The available sales history shows one example selling for £100 at UK auction, and with so few data points the price a given unit fetches will depend heavily on working order and included accessories.
Is the Kodak Library Kodascope a camera or a projector?
The Kodascope line is Kodak's range of cine film projectors rather than cameras, used to project amateur movie film at home.
