Kodak Vanity Kodak Ensemble

The Vanity Kodak Ensemble is a vintage Kodak compact camera sold as a presentation set, combining a small folding camera with accessories housed in a fitted case aimed at the women's market of its era. It was positioned as a lifestyle product rather than a technical instrument, bundling the camera with cosmetic and personal items.

Auction evidence for the Vanity Kodak Ensemble is thin, so any sense of what one is worth today rests on a single UK saleroom hammer result of £470 from a Christie's sale, achieved at wholesale auction level rather than at retail. On that limited basis the price an Ensemble sells for is heavily dependent on the completeness and condition of the case, fittings and original accessories, which typically drive the value far more than the camera body alone.
