Laack Sport (tropen)
The Laack Sport (tropen) is an early 20th-century folding camera produced in a tropical specification, with the brass-finished bodywork typical of cameras built for use in hot and humid climates. It is a collector-market plate or roll-film camera rather than a mainstream consumer model.
Evidence of what a Laack Sport (tropen) is worth at saleroom level is limited: the only recorded UK auction hammer result in our data is £850 from 2020, which sets the single reference point for value as of today. With just one sale on file, the price a clean example sells for can vary significantly with condition, completeness of the original leather and bellows, and the strength of bidding on the day.
