What it is
{"overview":"The Newman & Guardia New Special Sibyl is a British-made folding plate camera from the early twentieth century. Condition is the dominant value driver today in 2026 — examples with clean leather, intact bellows and a working shutter sell for more, while tired bodies fetch the lower end of the range. Check the shutter for sticky slow speeds, the ground glass for cracks, and the leather covering for lifting or loss.
