What it is
{"overview":"The Moore & Co. Field Camera is a British-made wooden field camera, a folding large-format design of the type used by professional and amateur photographers from the late 19th into the early 20th century. With only one data point, today's value for a comparable example is best treated as indicative rather than a firm market price, and condition of the bellows, woodwork and brassware will heavily influence what one sells for.","buying_guide":"On any wooden field camera of this age, inspect the bellows for pinholes and corner splits, check the focusing rack and tripod block for cracks, and confirm the ground glass is intact. Brass fittings should be present and movements (rise, fall, swing, tilt) should lock without slipping. Plate holders and a working lens are often missing and add materially to value when present.","specs":"Specification data was not supplied for this model, so detailed format and movement figures are not listed here.","faq":[{"q":"What is a Moore & Co.
