Ica Minimum Palmos (10x15, 457)

The Ica Minimum Palmos (10x15, 457) is an early 20th-century German folding plate camera, taking 10x15 cm plates. Ica was a Dresden-based maker formed in 1909, and the Palmos line was positioned as a compact folding plate camera within its catalogue.

With only a single UK auction record on file, the Minimum Palmos (10x15, 457) has limited price visibility: in 2011 one example sold for £150 at hammer in the saleroom. As of today, a realistic value for a complete, working example sits around that figure, though condition of the bellows, shutter and lens drives what any individual camera sells for. Buyers asking what a Minimum Palmos is worth should treat the £150 datapoint as wholesale auction level rather than retail.
