{"overview":"The Kodak Petite is a small folding camera from Kodak's interwar range, produced in the late 1920s and 1930s and aimed at the consumer market as a decorative, pocketable snapshot camera. As of today this suggests modest wholesale value in the low three figures, though condition of the enamel and bellows is the dominant factor in what any given example is worth, and retail asking prices from specialist dealers typically sit above these auction figures.","buying_guide":"Inspect the coloured enamel finish for chips, flaking and fading, as cosmetic condition drives price on this model more than mechanical function.

Versions and how to tell them apart

Questions

What affects the price of a Kodak Petite?

Condition of the coloured enamel body and the integrity of the bellows are the main value drivers; chipped finishes and pinholed bellows materially reduce what a Petite is worth.
