Zeiss Ikon Trona 210, 212, 214
The Zeiss Ikon Trona (models 210, 212, 214) is a folding bellows plate and rollfilm camera from the German maker Zeiss Ikon, produced in the interwar period of the 1920s and 1930s. It sat in the mid-range of Zeiss Ikon's folding camera line-up when new.
Sales data for the Trona series is very thin, with only a single recorded UK auction hammer result of £37 in early 2022. On that limited evidence, a Trona today is worth a modest sum at saleroom level, but a wider price range cannot be reliably stated from the available data.
Sales History
Prices shown are realised prices — auction results and completed eBay sales, never asking prices. Most saleroom figures are hammer prices, before commission; some houses publish a premium-inclusive figure, and we do not adjust for condition. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher. How this figure is calculated.
Rows marked offer accepted did sell, on the date shown, but eBay does not publish the amount that was accepted. The figure we show is what the seller was asking, so the true sale price was lower — treat it as an upper bound. These rows are excluded from every price range, average and valuation on this site.
