Many thanks for your sage advice: sorry for the delay in responding

Many thanks to all members for being so kind and considerate.

Many thanks for taking the time to respond: loving-kindness during these difficult times. I will hold, enjoy and pass on to my son who has taken up photography as a hobby.

Dear John, thankyou for taking the trouble to respond: in those days I was doing rather well and bought 3 separate items from the dealer: a rare Swedish glass; rare Jensen Silver cufflinks, and paid what I thought was fair. I think the camera was about £350 or so but I did take the Glass and Silver to Bonhams and they were impressed and thought I had been treated well by the supplier. I must admit it has been a joy enjoying all 3 items. The price appreciation is disappointing: I normally tend to double my prices over 10 years: I have an interest in silver and paintings and 1000 other things. These days I have been selling to make ends meet Many thanks again for your kindness pete

Hi Some 25 years ago when I was working in Copenhagen (a great city) I purchased at the antique market in Lyngby, a: Welta Garant with cable release in original case plus autoknipe haka mod 1 plus pollux rangefinder plus a special lens addition: Rodenstock trinar anastigmat 1:3.8f -10.5cm no 754270 Would be most obliged if you would suggest its approx value as I have hit hard times during covid. It's been looked after lovingly for 25 years: I just look at it, and am not an expert, and admire its beauty. kindest pete
