Sands & Hunter Exhibition
The Sands & Hunter Exhibition is a wooden field camera from the British plate-camera era, sold by the London retailer Sands & Hunter. As a large-format model from this period, it was aimed at studio and exhibition photographers working with glass plates.
Auction evidence for this model is thin: a single UK saleroom hammer result of £48 from 2017 is the only data point on file, so today's market value sits in that vicinity at wholesale level. With only one sale recorded, buyers asking what a Sands & Hunter Exhibition is worth in 2026 should treat that figure as indicative rather than a firm guide, and condition of the woodwork, bellows and brass fittings will heavily influence what it sells for.
Sales History
Prices shown are UK auction hammer results — the wholesale level achieved in the saleroom. Neither buyer’s nor seller’s commission is included. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher.
