Rollei Rolleicord I 'Tapeten' (Wallpapered)
The Rolleicord I 'Tapeten' is a 6x6 medium-format twin-lens reflex made by Rollei, introduced in the 1930s as the entry-level companion to the Rolleiflex line. The 'Tapeten' (Wallpapered) nickname refers to the early variant whose front and rear panels are covered in a textured patterned material rather than plain leatherette, identifying the first generation of the Rolleicord.
With only a single recent UK auction-hammer result on file, the Rolleicord I 'Tapeten' sells for around £120 at saleroom level — a wholesale figure rather than a retail price. On that basis, what a Rolleicord I 'Tapeten' is worth today in 2026 sits in the low three figures, though one data point cannot establish a reliable range and condition of the patterned covering will heavily influence value.
