Wollensakopticalco. 14 Inch f/6 Veritar
The Wollensak 14 Inch f/6 Veritar is a long-focal-length portrait lens produced by the Wollensak Optical Company of Rochester, New York. It is a large-format optic intended for studio and portrait use rather than a complete camera, and surfaces today mainly in the secondary market for vintage photographic equipment.
Sales data for the 14 Inch f/6 Veritar is very thin: a single recorded UK auction result from November 2025 saw one example fetch £230 at hammer, which gives the only current reference point for what this lens is worth in 2026. With just one data point at saleroom level, that figure should be treated as indicative rather than a reliable median, and prices for other examples could vary substantially depending on condition, completeness and shutter.
Sales History
Prices shown are UK auction hammer results — the wholesale level achieved in the saleroom. Neither buyer’s nor seller’s commission is included. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher.
