Mackenstein Francia

The Mackenstein Francia is a French-made plate camera produced by the Parisian maker Mackenstein. It belongs to the era of folding and field plate cameras used before roll film became dominant.

Sales evidence for the Mackenstein Francia is thin: a single recorded UK auction hammer result from 2003 stands at £208, so any current value or price guidance for what one sells for today should be treated as indicative rather than a true market median. Because only one data point exists, buyers cannot reliably establish what a Francia is worth in 2026 without seeking further comparable saleroom results.

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.
