S/N 1249062 with Zeiss Tessar 75mm F3.5

All I can find out is that it was manufactured in 1951.

A client of mine wants to sell it to me and I want to give her a fair and reasonable price as it was left to her by her father who passed away many years ago. My client is in her early 80's and her eyes do not allow her to use her photographic equipment.

Thanks.

If it's in good accurate working condition, leather in tact... I would say about $300. Similar price to a Rolleiflex Xenar that I have. A pricier Rolleiflex would either be Planar or Xenotar.

Here's a website you can use to track down information about your Rolleiflex. Just use the serial number. http://www.rolleiclub.com/cameras/tlr/i ... _TLR.shtml

This is a great resource too for old analog cameras, not just for Rollei's
