What it is

{"overview":"The Thornton-Pickard Filmak is a folding camera produced by Thornton-Pickard Manufacturing Co., a British camera maker active in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Inspect the bellows in a dark room with a torch inside, check that the shutter fires at any speed, and confirm the lens is free of haze, fungus and separation.

Questions

Is the Thornton-Pickard Filmak a collectible camera?

It is an early British folding camera from a long-defunct maker, which gives it some historical interest, but the thin sales record suggests modest collector demand rather than strong investment value.
