Kodak No. 4 Bullet Camera
The Kodak No. 4 Bullet Camera is an early roll-film box camera produced by Eastman Kodak. It dates from the late 19th to early 20th century era of simple roll-film photography aimed at amateur users.
With only a single recorded UK auction hammer result, the available evidence shows the No. 4 Bullet Camera selling for £75 at saleroom level (wholesale, before commission) in 2022, and there is not enough data to establish a reliable range or median for what one is worth today in 2026. As with most early Kodak box cameras, the price a clean example sells for at auction is highly condition-sensitive, with original leather covering, working shutter and intact wooden body all influencing value.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Kodak No. 4 Bullet Camera worth?
Based on the limited UK auction evidence available, one example sold for £75 at hammer in 2022, but a single data point is not enough to give a confident current value.
How much does a Kodak No. 4 Bullet Camera sell for at auction?
The only recorded hammer price in our data is £75, achieved in a UK saleroom; the price an individual camera sells for will depend heavily on cosmetic condition and whether the shutter still functions.
Is the Kodak No. 4 Bullet Camera a usable camera today?
It was designed for roll film that is no longer in standard production, so its value today is primarily as a collector's or display item rather than as a working photographic tool.
