Konishiroku Sakura (Vest Pocket)
The Konishiroku Sakura (Vest Pocket) is a Japanese folding roll-film camera from Konishiroku, the maker that later became Konica. It belongs to the pre-war vest pocket folding category designed for compact, portable use.
Hammer prices at UK auction for the Sakura (Vest Pocket) are based on a single recorded sale at £300 in 2016, so today's market value is hard to pin down with precision. Buyers asking what one is worth or sells for in 2026 should treat that figure as an isolated saleroom data point rather than a reliable median, and condition, completeness of bellows and shutter function will swing the price considerably.
