Murer & Duroni Sprite

The Murer & Duroni Sprite is an early plate camera from the Italian maker Murer & Duroni, a Milan-based firm active in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It was sold as a compact detective-style camera for amateur use when new.

UK auction hammer results for the Sprite are thin and highly variable: recorded sales range from £19 to £330, with only two data points available, so there is no meaningful median in today's market. At saleroom level the price a Sprite sells for is driven almost entirely by condition, completeness and provenance rather than a settled benchmark of value.
