Monroe Cameraco. Monroe No.7

{"overview":"The Monroe No.7 is an early plate camera produced by Monroe Cameraco., a maker active in the early era of folding plate photography. With only a single recorded result, the price a Monroe No.7 sells for can shift considerably with condition, completeness of the bellows and plate holders, and originality of fittings. Buyers should treat that figure as indicative rather than a firm market value.","buying_guide":"Inspect the bellows carefully for pinholes and corner splits, as replacements for cameras of this vintage are not commercially available. Check the wooden body for shrinkage, cracks, and loose joinery, and confirm the shutter (if fitted) still fires across its speeds.
