Lamperti& Garbagnat! Rotativa
The Lamperti & Garbagnati Rotativa is a camera produced by the Italian maker Lamperti & Garbagnati. It is a niche piece that appears only occasionally in the collector market.
Sales data for the Rotativa is extremely thin: a single recorded result at UK auction in 2017 hammered at £500, which gives a reference point rather than a reliable median for what the camera is worth in 2026. With only one data point at saleroom level, current value is hard to pin down and condition, completeness and bidder interest on the day will heavily influence what any given example sells for.
Sales History
Prices shown are UK auction hammer results — the wholesale level achieved in the saleroom. Neither buyer’s nor seller’s commission is included. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher.
