Minox 35 Multicolor (prototype)
The Minox 35 Multicolor is a prototype variant of Minox's 35mm compact camera line. As a prototype, it was not part of regular production and exists in very limited numbers, making it a collector-oriented item rather than a working user camera.
Auction evidence for this prototype is extremely thin: a single UK saleroom hammer result of £3,000 in 2021 is the only data point on file, so any current 2026 valuation is indicative rather than established. Because prototypes trade at auction infrequently and prices depend heavily on provenance and documentation, what this Minox 35 Multicolor sells for in any given sale can vary widely from that figure.
Sales History
Prices shown are realised prices — auction results and completed eBay sales, never asking prices. Most saleroom figures are hammer prices, before commission; some houses publish a premium-inclusive figure, and we do not adjust for condition. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher.
