Minox LX '100 Jahre Walter Zapp'
The Minox LX '100 Jahre Walter Zapp' is a commemorative edition of the Minox LX subminiature camera, a 8x11mm format film camera produced by Minox to mark the centenary of the company's founder, Walter Zapp. As a limited commemorative variant, it was positioned as a collector-oriented release rather than a general production tool.
At recent UK auction in 2023, hammer prices for this commemorative LX have sat in the £380–£440 range, with the two recorded sales of £375 and £438 producing a median around £410. As of 2026, the small sample size means the market value can shift noticeably with condition and completeness of presentation packaging, and a single strong example can move the going price meaningfully.
