Thornton-pickardmfg. Co. Limit

The Thornton-Pickard Limit is a British-made plate camera from the early twentieth century, produced by the Manchester firm Thornton-Pickard Manufacturing Company. It belongs to the press and field category of folding plate cameras that were common before roll film became dominant.

Sales data for the Limit is extremely thin: a single recorded UK auction-hammer result from 2000 saw an example sell for £881. With only one data point, today's value is difficult to pin down precisely, and any current price would depend heavily on completeness, condition of the bellows and shutter, and whether original plate holders are included.
