Sanderson Junior

The Sanderson Junior is a British-made folding plate camera from the early 20th century, produced by Sanderson, a maker associated with hand-and-stand field cameras. It was positioned as a more compact, lower-cost option within the Sanderson range.

Auction evidence for the Sanderson Junior is thin: a single recorded UK auction hammer result of £211 from 2000 is the only data point available, so any current value or price estimate today should be treated as indicative rather than typical. Because this is a wholesale saleroom figure rather than a retail asking price, what a Sanderson Junior is worth in 2026 will depend heavily on completeness, lens fitted, and bellows condition, and clean examples can sell for materially more or less depending on the sale.
