Anthony View Camera

The Anthony View Camera is a large-format wooden field/studio camera from the 19th-century American maker E. & H.T. Anthony, designed for sheet-film or glass-plate photography with bellows focusing and a ground-glass back.

Sales data is extremely thin: a single recorded UK auction hammer result from 1998 reached £172, which gives a wholesale saleroom benchmark rather than a current retail price. With no recent comparables, today's value depends heavily on completeness, bellows condition, and the presence of original lens and plate holders, and pricing should be confirmed against fresh auction listings before buying or selling. Buyers asking what an Anthony View Camera is worth in 2026 should treat the historical figure as indicative only.
