My friend at the newspaper I work for has a Speed Graphic Anniversary with a Voitlanger Amastigmat lens 1:4,5 f13.5cm No.597728. I like to know if its worth anything? It is dusty and has not worked in ages. He may keep it as a heirloom. I look for your replies.

Hi and welcome!

The Anniversary model is worth up to about $150 for an excellent example. It's little difficult to give a better appraisal without seeing the camera or knowing whether it works.

You can search the completed listings on eBay to get a pretty good idea.

Don't worry about it becoming an heirloom, clean it up and use it!

Cheers,
Bruce
