Sanderson Hand Camera

{"overview":"The Sanderson Hand Camera is a British wooden folding plate camera designed by Frederick Sanderson and produced from the late 1890s onward. Condition is the dominant variable today: examples with intact bellows, clean brass fittings and a working Sanderson movement sell for noticeably more than tired bodies, and a fitted period lens of known maker can push value toward the upper end of that range. Brass fittings should move without binding, and any fitted shutter and lens (commonly Ross, Goerz or similar period optics) should be assessed separately as they can represent much of the camera's value.
